[PATCH 7.2.y] nfsd: fix all-zero stateid in CB_OFFLOAD for async COPY

From: Lubos Rendek

Date: Wed Oct 14 2026 - 20:55:36 EST


[ There is no upstream commit: this fixes the 7.2.y backport of
d0beaee498e1. Mainline fixed the problem as part of the async COPY
rework in commit f307b4f7ed17 ("nfsd: split nfsd4_copy into transient
and durable async copy objects"), which is too risky to backport. ]

Since commit 14b978e8d05c ("nfsd: fix stale s2s_cp_stateids IDR entry
for async COPY"), nfsd4_copy() calls dup_copy_fields() before the copy
stateid is created and then writes the new stateid only into the COPY
result. The async copy's own cp_res.cb_stateid stays zero, so
nfsd4_send_cb_offload() sends CB_OFFLOAD with an all-zero stateid. The
client cannot match it to its pending COPY and waits forever in
nfs42_proc_copy().

Also copy the new stateid into async_copy->cp_res.cb_stateid. Calling
dup_copy_fields() after nfs4_init_copy_state() instead is not an
option, because dup_copy_fields() also copies cp_stateid and would
overwrite the stateid that the backport moved to the async copy.

Tested on 7.2.10 with an NFSv4.2 server-side COPY between two
exports: with this change the copy completes and CB_OFFLOAD carries
the same stateid as the COPY reply. Without it, cp(1) hangs on 7.2.4
and 7.2.9; the affected code in nfsd4_copy() is the same in 7.2.10.
