The server may still send a completion message for the I/O if it wasn't actually cancelled but the Rflush message must arrive after that. QEMU hence waits for the flushed PDU to complete before sending the Rflush message back to the client. If a client sends 'Tflush tag oldtag' and tag =3D=3D oldtag, QEMU will then allocate a PDU identified by tag, find it in the PDU list and wait for this same PDU to complete... i.e. wait for a completion that will never happen. This causes a tag and ring slot leak in the guest, and a PDU leak in QEMU, all of them limited by the maximal number of PDUs (128). But, worse, this causes QEMU to hang on device reset since v9fs_reset() wants to drain all pending I/O. This insane behavior is likely to denote a bug in the client, and it would deserve an Rerror message to be sent back. Unfortunately, the protocol allows it and requires all flush requests to suceed (only a Tflush response is expected). The only option is to detect when we have to handle a self-referencing flush request and report success to the client right away.
