Subject: [PATCH v2] nfsd: return hard failure for OP_SETCLIENTID when there are too many clients.
Date: Tue, 23 Apr 2024 17:28:46 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <171385732687.7600.2864936377155228614@noble.neil.brown.name> (raw)


If there are more non-courteous clients than the calculated limit, we
should fail the request rather than report a soft failure and
encouraging the client to retry indefinitely.

If there a courteous clients which push us over the limit, then expedite
their removal.

This is not known to have caused a problem is production use, but
testing of lots of clients reports repeated NFS4ERR_DELAY responses
which doesn't seem helpful.

Also remove an outdated comment - we do use a slab cache.
