Note some 4.1 pynfs delegation tests depend on read-only create opens to get delegations. I've pushed out a pynfs change to git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux.git to make pynfs reopen if it doesn't get a delegation on the create. Of course there's no way pynfs can force the server to give the client a delegation, so we just make our best effort. For knfsd arguably the better solution would be to teach it not to break a client's own read delegations. But I haven't looked into how to do that. (And I'd need to review what the spec says in this case. And it might not work for 4.0 if that SETATTR isn't being done with a stateid.) --b. > > --b. > > commit 3f47b6220ca6b08a7ab86baaaab87389707a3308 > Author: Steve Dickson <steved@redhat.com> > Date: Wed May 15 14:51:49 2013 -0400 > > NFSD: Don't give out read delegations on exclusive creates > > When an exclusive create is done with the mode bits > set (aka open(testfile, O_CREAT | O_EXCL, 0777)) this > causes a OPEN op followed by a SETATTR op.
