Since 2.6.30-rc, I've been experiencing various issues relating to
getcwd() returning ENOENT on NFS4 clients. I used an over-complicated
but reliable reproducer [1] (on Karmic RC against a 2.6.32-rc5 NFS4
server) to bisect [2].
The impact of this regression is moderate (side-effects range from
benign to failure), so we should get a fix into 2.6.32 if at all
possible and strongly consider a 2.6.31 stable update.
Thanks,
Daniel

NFSv4: Simplify some cache consistency post-op GETATTRs
Certain asynchronous operations such as write() do not expect
(or care) that other metadata such as the file owner, mode, acls, ...
change. All they want to do is update and/or check the change attribute,
ctime, and mtime.
By skipping the file owner and group update, we also avoid having to do a
potential idmapper upcall for these asynchronous RPC calls.

All it should be doing is reducing the frequency with which we update some of the inode metadata. Have you ever been able to capture one of these errors using strace?

Backing this patch out by hand against stock 2.6.32-rc5 (w/ 2.6.32-rc5 on server) corrects the behaviour. It's readily reproducible [1]; using 2.6.30, the issue is not seen, thus is a regression. To observe the change to user-level behaviour (after the reproducer commands): # make clean # strace -ffe getcwd make -n >list [pid 3829] getcwd(0x7fffa269a380, 4096) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) make: getcwd: No such file or directory Would this help for me to log this via a bugzilla.kernel.org ticket?

Cheers Trond ------------------------------------------------------------------- NFSv4: Fix a cache validation bug which causes getcwd() to return ENOENT From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Changeset a65318bf3afc93ce49227e849d213799b072c5fd (NFSv4: Simplify some cache consistency post-op GETATTRs) incorrectly changed the getattr bitmap for readdir(). This causes the readdir() function to fail to return a fileid/inode number, which again exposed a bug in the NFS readdir code that causes spurious ENOENT errors to appear in applications (see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14541). The immediate band aid is to revert the incorrect bitmap change, but more long term, we should change the NFS readdir code to cope with the fact that NFSv4 servers are not required to support fileids/inode numbers.
