    [PATCH] knfsd: match GRANTED_RES replies using cookies · 39be4502
    Olaf Kirch 提交于
    When we send a GRANTED_MSG call, we current copy the NLM cookie provided in
    the original LOCK call - because in 1996, some broken clients seemed to rely
    on this bug.  However, this means the cookies are not unique, so that when the
    client's GRANTED_RES message comes back, we cannot simply match it based on
    the cookie, but have to use the client's IP address in addition.  Which breaks
    when you have a multi-homed NFS client.
    
    The X/Open spec explicitly mentions that clients should not expect the same
    cookie; so one may hope that any clients that were broken in 1996 have either
    been fixed or rendered obsolete.
