-------------------
This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-2.6.34.git
If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
-------------------

commit f06f00a24d76e168ecb38d352126fd203937b601 upstream.

svc_tcp_sendto sets XPT_CLOSE if we fail to transmit the entire reply.
However, the XPT_CLOSE won't be acted on immediately. Meanwhile other
threads could send further replies before the socket is really shut
down. This can manifest as data corruption: for example, if a truncated
read reply is followed by another rpc reply, that second reply will look
to the client like further read data.

Symptoms were data corruption preceded by svc_tcp_sendto logging
something like

kernel: rpc-srv/tcp: nfsd: sent only 963696 when sending 1048708 bytes - shutting down socket
