+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1258069 +++ Description of problem: gNFSd throws Remote IO error for mounts to directories which have changed OOB from the target gNFSd (say from a FUSE mount). Internally this is due to ESTALE (op_errno == 116) being returned to mnt3_resolve_subdir_cbk, this causes the code path to unroll with an error. Per the AFR2 code comments, the correct behavior is for gNFSd to purge the inode from it's inode table and do a fresh lookup on the inode. The question might follow why does mnt3_resolve_subdir_cbk get ESTALE? This is because the LOOKUP request is actually sent to the bricks via gfid vs a full path lookup, and this optimization happens because the path successfully grep's the gNFSd inode table for the GFID. This isn't incorrect behavior, but is the root cause of the ESTALE. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): v3.6.x (verified), probably 3.7.x but unverified. How reproducible: 100%, see prove test. Steps to Reproduce: See prove test. Actual results: Mount returns with "Remote I/O error" Expected results: The mount should succeed. Additional info: See attached prove test and patch which resolves the bug. --- Additional comment from on 2015-08-28 22:57:54 CEST --- Patch based off of FB GlusterFS v3.6.3, might not line up exactly but patching mnt3_resolve_subdir_cbk of mounts3.c per this patch should do the trick. --- Additional comment from on 2015-08-29 00:37:58 CEST ---

COMMIT: http://review.gluster.org/12046 committed in master by Jeff Darcy (jdarcy) ------ commit 31000d1a62da4e8beafb6f5a7b30ae593479a1ce Author: Richard Wareing <rwareing> Date: Thu Aug 27 21:06:37 2015 -0700 nfs: Fixes "Remote I/O error" mount failures - Fixes issue where NFS mount fail with "Remove I/O error" after the target directory has been deleted and re-created after the gNFSd has already cached the inode of the first generation of the target directory. - The solution is to follow the guidance of the AFR2 comments and refresh the inode by deleting it from cache and looking it up again.
