patch to add some missing inode revals
This patch seems to correct the problem. Without it, the test was pretty
regularly failing to notice that the i_nlink count had been incremented after
the link call. With this patch though, it seems to work. Looks like it may also
prevent some other v2 problems as well...
A very easy reproducer for this. Mount a NFSv2 filesystem: # cd mounted_filesystem # mkdir d1 d2 # touch d1/foo; ln d1/foo d2/bar; stat d1/foo File: `d1/foo' Size: 0 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 4096 regular empty file Device: 11h/17d Inode: 1048679 Links: 1 Access: (0644/-rw-r--r--) Uid: ( 0/ root) Gid: ( 0/ root) Access: 2007-02-16 10:56:06.000000000 -0500 Modify: 2007-02-16 10:56:06.000000000 -0500 Change: 2007-02-16 10:56:06.000000000 -0500 Links should be 2 here. If you wait a few seconds and stat it again, it is. Created attachment 148245 [details]
respun patch that just includes the bit for nfs_proc_link
This patch is a smaller patch that just corrects the problem in the reproducer
without the other bits that we may not need.
