NFS: Fix fscache super_cookie index_key from changing after umount
Commit 402cb8dda949 ("fscache: Attach the index key and aux data to the cookie") added the index_key and index_key_len parameters to fscache_acquire_cookie(), and updated the callers in the NFS client. One of the callers was inside nfs_fscache_get_super_cookie() and was changed to use the full struct nfs_fscache_key as the index_key. However, a couple members of this structure contain pointers and thus will change each time the same NFS share is remounted. Since index_key is used for fscache_cookie->key_hash and this subsequently is used to compare cookies, the effectiveness of fscache with NFS is reduced to the point at which a umount occurs. Any subsequent remount of the same share will cause a unique NFS super_block index_key and key_hash to be generated for the same data, rendering any prior fscache data unable to be found. A simple reproducer demonstrates the problem. 1. Mount share with 'fsc', create a file, drop page cache systemctl start cachefilesd mount -o vers=3,fsc 127.0.0.1:/export /mnt dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/file1.bin bs=4096 count=1 echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches 2. Read file into page cache and fscache, then unmount dd if=/mnt/file1.bin of=/dev/null bs=4096 count=1 umount /mnt 3. Remount and re-read which should come from fscache mount -o vers=3,fsc 127.0.0.1:/export /mnt echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches dd if=/mnt/file1.bin of=/dev/null bs=4096 count=1 4. Check for READ ops in mountstats - there should be none grep READ: /proc/self/mountstats Looking at the history and the removed function, nfs_super_get_key(), we should only use nfs_fscache_key.key plus any uniquifier, for the fscache index_key.
