Description Soumya Koduri 2015-08-18 13:44:11 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1250797 +++

Description of problem:

We have seen a couple of issues with transport object reference and leak in rpc
layer, particularly with 'rpc_clnt_disable', 

a) Once the transport object is disassociated from rpc->conn, it should not be 
referenced further. Fix is needed in 'rpc_clnt_remove_ping_timer_locked'.

b) Unref transport object to avoid memory leak.

    rpc-clnt: Check for transport object during rpc connection cleanup
    
    While doing glfs_fini(), all the xlators are first notified of
    PARENT_DOWN. protocol-client xlator on receving that notification
    does rpc_clnt_disable which disassociates rpc->conn with its
    transport object and does socket shutdown. So any further references
    to conn->trans should not happen during rpc connection cleanup which
    is done mainly as part of epoll event handling of EPOLLERR/EPOLLHUP.
