There have been reports of problems when running fstests generic/531 against Linux NFS servers with NFSv4. The NFS server that hosts the test's SCRATCH_DEV suffers from CPU soft lock-ups during the test. Analysis shows that: fs/nfsd/filecache.c 482 ret = list_lru_walk(&nfsd_file_lru, 483 nfsd_file_lru_cb, 484 &head, LONG_MAX); causes nfsd_file_gc() to walk the entire length of the filecache LRU list every time it is called (which is quite frequently). The walk holds a spinlock the entire time that prevents other nfsd threads from accessing the filecache. What's more, for NFSv4 workloads, none of the items that are visited during this walk may be evicted, since they are all files that are held OPEN by NFS clients. Address this by ensuring that open files are not kept on the LRU list.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
