fuse: ignore entry-timeout on LOOKUP_REVAL
The following test case demonstrates the bug: sh# mount -t glusterfs localhost:meta-test /mnt/one sh# mount -t glusterfs localhost:meta-test /mnt/two sh# echo stuff > /mnt/one/file; rm -f /mnt/two/file; echo stuff > /mnt/one/file bash: /mnt/one/file: Stale file handle sh# echo stuff > /mnt/one/file; rm -f /mnt/two/file; sleep 1; echo stuff > /mnt/one/file On the second open() on /mnt/one, FUSE would have used the old nodeid (file handle) trying to re-open it. Gluster is returning -ESTALE. The ESTALE propagates back to namei.c:filename_lookup() where lookup is re-attempted with LOOKUP_REVAL. The right behavior now, would be for FUSE to ignore the entry-timeout and and do the up-call revalidation. Instead FUSE is ignoring LOOKUP_REVAL, succeeding the revalidation (because entry-timeout has not passed), and open() is again retried on the old file handle and finally the ESTALE is going back to the application. Fix: if revalidation is happening with LOOKUP_REVAL, then ignore entry-timeout and always do the up-call.
