How NFS v3 servers and clients re-synchronize locks after reboots


↺ How NFS v3 servers and clients re-synchronize locks after reboots


> NFS (v3) is usually described as 'stateless', by which we mean that the NFS clients hold all of the state and in theory all the server does is answer all of their requests one by one (the actual reality is more messy). However, NFS (v3) locks are obviously not stateless, in that the server and all of the NFS clients have to agree on what is and isn't locked (and by who). This creates a need to re-synchronize this state if something unfortunate happens to either a NFS client or the NFS server, so you don't get stuck locks and other problems. The NFS v3 locking protocol opted to take a relatively brute force approach to the problem.
