7 months ago Patch updated. All handling of the gsh_refstr has been clarified. Documentation (comments and function documentation) has now been provided. I also cleaned up so code is used more in common and more clearly.

7 months ago I tested patchset 2 locally and it does fix my issue.
I need to deliver a fix to my users quickly. Even if you submit this fix to V6-dev today, I am still using V5.6. If you submitted the fix to V5., we would still have to carefully import it into our build. With that in mind, I am thinking maybe I submit a local fix on my side while I give our developers more time to review your more extensive fix. So I have this question for you: does this fix look acceptable to you:

void restore_op_context_export(struct saved_export_context *saved)As a downstream only fix, that should fix the immediate issue. I do encourage changing to the more complete fix ASAP and perhaps only release this temporary fix in a fork, but all of that is up to you how to handle.

I am getting an easily reproducible heap-use-after-free with my custom FSAL on MacOS.
Client and server are both on MacOS, the client is the MacOS kernel I am running with ganesha V5.6 My server only supports NFSv4 My fsal is configured with
lock_support=falseandlock_support_async_block=falseMy fsal does not implementlock_op2Please notice MacOS kernel sends compound request: PUTFH, RELEASE_LOCKOWNER (I'm not sure if it is really necessary to send PUTFH, but that's what darwin does)It strongly feels like refcounts gone wrong
I think what's used-after-free is either op_ctx->ctx_fullpath or op_ctx->ctx_pseudopath (or maybe fullpath / pseudopath?).
I suspect the issue is somewhere in release_lock_owner: https://github.com/nfs-ganesha/nfs-ganesha/blob/V5.6/src/SAL/nfs4_state.c#L708-L745
