My box suddenly got EADDRNOTAVAIL in sunrpc, and printk in xs_tcp_setup_socket killed the box as it has no ratelimit...

After 60 seconds hardware watchdog decided that box is not sufficiently alive, and rebooted it, so I have no idea why code got EADDRNOTAVAIL error (box has static IPv4 which should be one used for communication, and IPv6 which should not be used for NFS).
No. This was very done deliberately in order to catch all unforeseen errors, so that we can figure out if (and how) we need to handle them. If this condition lasted for > 60 seconds, then it is unlikely that delay+retry would help. Is this in any way reproducible? I'd love to investigate what happened.
Well, maybe delay would not help to recover, but it would fix problem that box was unusable. No, I hit it only once, without doing anything special (mounted local filesystem, and when I was typing another command, screen suddenly exploded with xs_tcp_setup_socket messages. I've tried to reproduce it for past half hour, but I cannot. Only thing I could reproduce is that due to amount of NFS mounts I have (59) it seems that after 4 cycles of 'umount -a -t nfs; mount -a -t nfs' kernel runs out of ports below 1024, and I get quite unspecific 'mount.nfs: mount system call failed' (with no error in the dmesg). I'm not sure whether these hundreds of connections in TIME_WAIT might have something to do with receiving EADDRNOTAVAIL - as after all I do not remember doing any NFS remounting yesterday... I'll for sure tell you when I'll find some reproducible scenario.
I've just hit this bug with kernel 2.6.30-rc1-git3, doing "ls -l" in $HOME. It happens that in $HOME I have a link to a NFS-mounted directory, and I guess that "ls -l" checks if links have a valid target or not, so it must have triggered the NFS call which in turn flooded my logs and killed my system.
It happened again, apparently today at 7:47. Fortunately this time I had watchdog disabled, so box is still in this state - except that I had to kill klogd as it filled my filesystem :-( Apr 11 07:11:49 petr-dev3 -- MARK -- Apr 11 07:31:49 petr-dev3 -- MARK -- Apr 11 07:47:59 petr-dev3 kernel: xs_tcp_setup_socket: connect returned unhandled error -99 Apr 11 07:47:59 petr-dev3 last message repeated 66 times Apr 11 07:47:59 petr-dev3 kernel: xs_tcocket: connect returned unhandled error -99 Unmount of all nfs filesystems except these two succeeded, and messages are still being logged, so I guess that one of these is filesystem which triggered problem: bugs:/bugs /bugs nfs rw,relatime,vers=3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,namlen=255,hard,nointr,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=10.17.4.29,mountvers=3,mountproto=tcp,addr=10.17.4.29 0 0 cm-home:/home /mts-cm/home nfs rw,relatime,vers=3,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,namlen=255,hard,nointr,proto=tcp,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=10.17.193.167,mountvers=3,mountproto=tcp,addr=10.17.193.167 0 0 As /bugs mountpoint is responding, while /mts-cm/home is not, I guess this is problematic mountpoint...

OK... It's very odd that netstat is reporting the socket as being in a TIME_WAIT state, given the above xs_tcp_state_change() messages that put it in TCP_CLOSE, TCP_ESTABLISHED, TCP_FIN_WAIT1, and later TCP_FIN_WAIT2... It is also odd that the above call to xs_tcp_send_request() is returning EPIPE, when xs_tcp_state_change() has just told us that the socket state is TCP_ESTABLISHED...
I just hit it again, running 2.6.30-rc2-git7. I also see a big slowdown in similar conditions when running 2.6.29.1, but without the log flood so it is less problematic. Trond, what can be done to help troubleshoot this issue? The current situation is a pain, having to reboot each time the problem happens is really inconvenient. If you aren't going to rate limit the printk then you need to provide a fix rather sooner than later.

I'll test this patch, thanks. I'll let you know how it goes. As I tend to hit the bug every other day or so, it will take some time before I can say for sure that the bug is fixed (if it is.)

Unfortunately I have no access to the server (they are some NetApp and EMC storage devices maintained by company IT). It seems that they are all configured same way, so after mount they start timing out connections all at the same moment (after 10 minutes since mount, or something like that), and netstat above is captured when I run 'df' after connections moved from established to time_wait on client side. That TIME_WAIT disappear after 60 seconds, as expected.

(FYI: the NFS convention is that clients are supposed to close the TCP connection if it has been idle for 5 minutes, whereas the servers usually close it if the client has been idle for 6 minutes)...

Yes, they are timing out because system is idle. It seems that it behaves way it should - it is client who closes them, 5 minutes after I run 'df': $ savedq=-1; df > /dev/null; while true; do q="`netstat -atn | grep 2049 | grep TIME_WAIT | wc -l`"; if [ "$q" != "$savedq" ]; then echo -n "$q "; date; savedq="$q"; fi; sleep 1; done 0 Wed Apr 22 14:59:10 PDT 2009 28 Wed Apr 22 15:04:10 PDT 2009 0 Wed Apr 22 15:05:08 PDT 2009 So as far as I can tell with patch everything works as expected.

The 5minute idle timeout is the one case where we don't care about preserving the port number (because there are no outstanding NFS requests to replay to the server). Jean, are you seeing the same behaviour (i.e. errors only on idle timeout), and is the fix working for you?

I didn't hit the problem since I applied your patch, but that was only yesterday so it's too early to draw statistically valid conclusions. It is highly possible that the bug was happening on idle timeout, I am the only user on this machine and I access the NFS mounts only from times to times.
Still working here after one week. Time to send patch upstream?
I'd just like to hear an ACK from Jean too.
No problem here either, I'd say the patch is ripe for upstream.
Fixed in mainline as commit number f75e6745aa3084124ae1434fd7629853bdaf6798: SUNRPC: Fix the problem of EADDRNOTAVAIL syslog floods on reconnect
Marking bug as CLOSED. Please reopen if the problem reoccurs.
Created attachment 39382 [details] RPC debug messages Adding this attachment since it is reproducible under fc11 kernel version 2.6.30.10-2.4.fc11.x86_64 Happens when a continuous cp operation is performed on an NFS mount-point, once in a while when NFS server is rebooted and gets back online. rpciod goes bonkers on this fc11 server utilizing 50% cpu and other 50% is used by "cp" operation itself. But we could see on the terminal that i/o is not progressing any more. Can be reproduced quite well.

To be more clear i have looked into clnt.c and xprt.c code for the necessary changes which went in to 2.6.30 kernel are present in the fc11 kernel server.
Can this be reproduced with a recent kernel? FC11 community support expired more than 6 months ago, and 2.6.30 kernels are almost 2 years old.

I would try, but as i saw the code base didn't change much for sunrpc since 2.6.30 - recent 2.6.36.1 so thought of reporting it nevertheless. I will report back if i am able to reproduce it with new kernel.
