I noticed that once an NFSv4.1 callback operation gets a NFS4ERR_DELAY status on CB_SEQUENCE and then the connection is lost, the callback client loops, resending it indefinitely. The switch arm in nfsd4_cb_sequence_done() that handles NFS4ERR_DELAY uses rpc_restart_call() to rearm the RPC state machine for the retransmit, but that path does not call the rpc_prepare_call callback again. Thus cb_seq_status is set to -10008 by the first NFS4ERR_DELAY result, but is never set back to 1 for the retransmits. nfsd4_cb_sequence_done() thinks it's getting nothing but a long series of CB_SEQUENCE NFS4ERR_DELAY replies.

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.
