Currently, when NFSD handles an asynchronous COPY, it returns a zero write verifier, relying on the subsequent CB_OFFLOAD callback to pass the write verifier and a stable_how4 value to the client. However, if the CB_OFFLOAD never arrives at the client (for example, if a network partition occurs just as the server sends the CB_OFFLOAD operation), the client will never receive this verifier. Thus, if the client sends a follow-up COMMIT, there is no way for the client to assess the COMMIT result. The usual recovery for a missing CB_OFFLOAD is for the client to send an OFFLOAD_STATUS operation, but that operation does not carry a write verifier in its result. Neither does it carry a stable_how4 value, so the client /must/ send a COMMIT in this case -- which will always fail because currently there's still no write verifier in the COPY result. Thus the server needs to return a normal write verifier in its COPY result even if the COPY operation is to be performed asynchronously. If the server recognizes the callback stateid in subsequent OFFLOAD_STATUS operations, then obviously it has not restarted, and the write verifier the client received in the COPY result is still valid and can be used to assess a COMMIT of the copied data, if one is needed.

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 reStructuredText 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.
