S5.3.3.1 of RFC 2203 requires that an incoming GSS-wrapped message whose sequence number lies outside the current window is dropped. The rationale is: The reason for discarding requests silently is that the server is unable to determine if the duplicate or out of range request was due to a sequencing problem in the client, network, or the operating system, or due to some quirk in routing, or a replay attack by an intruder. Discarding the request allows the client to recover after timing out, if indeed the duplication was unintentional or well intended. However, clients may rely on the server dropping the connection to indicate that a retransmit is needed. Without a connection reset, a client can wait forever without retransmitting, and the workload just stops dead. I've reproduced this behavior by running xfstests generic/323 on an NFSv4.0 mount with proto=rdma and sec=krb5i. To address this issue, have the server close the connection when it silently discards an incoming message due to a GSS sequence number problem. There are a few other places where the server will never reply. Change those spots in a similar fashion. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: J.
