+Fault Injection
+===============
+Fault injection is a method for forcing errors that may not normally occur, or
+may be difficult to reproduce.  Forcing these errors in a controlled environment
+can help the developer find and fix bugs before their code is shipped in a
+production system.  Injecting an error on the Linux NFS server will allow us to
+observe how the client reacts and if it manages to recover its state correctly.
+
+NFSD_FAULT_INJECTION must be selected when configuring the kernel to use this
+feature.
+
+
+Using Fault Injection
+=====================
+On the client, mount the fault injection server through NFS v4.0+ and do some
+work over NFS (open files, take locks, ...).
+
+On the server, mount the debugfs filesystem to <debug_dir> and ls
+<debug_dir>/nfsd.  This will show a list of files that will be used for
+injecting faults on the NFS server.  As root, write a number n to the file
+corresponding to the action you want the server to take.  The server will then
+process the first n items it finds.  So if you want to forget 5 locks, echo '5'
+to <debug_dir>/nfsd/forget_locks.  A value of 0 will tell the server to forget
+all corresponding items.  A log message will be created containing the number
+of items forgotten (check dmesg).
+
+Go back to work on the client and check if the client recovered from the error
+correctly.
+
+
+Available Faults
+================
+forget_clients:
+     The NFS server keeps a list of clients that have placed a mount call.  If
+     this list is cleared, the server will have no knowledge of who the client
+     is, forcing the client to reauthenticate with the server.
+
+forget_openowners:
+     The NFS server keeps a list of what files are currently opened and who
+     they were opened by.  Clearing this list will force the client to reopen
+     its files.
+
+forget_locks:
+     The NFS server keeps a list of what files are currently locked in the VFS.
+     Clearing this list will force the client to reclaim its locks (files are
+     unlocked through the VFS as they are cleared from this list).
+
+forget_delegations:
+     A delegation is used to assure the client that a file, or part of a file,
+     has not changed since the delegation was awarded.  Clearing this list will
+     force the client to reaquire its delegation before accessing the file
+     again.
+
+recall_delegations:
+     Delegations can be recalled by the server when another client attempts to
+     access a file.  This test will notify the client that its delegation has
+     been revoked, forcing the client to reaquire the delegation before using
+     the file again.
+
+
+tools/nfs/inject_faults.sh script
+=================================
+This script has been created to ease the fault injection process.  This script
+will detect the mounted debugfs directory and write to the files located there
+based on the arguments passed by the user.  For example, running
+`inject_faults.sh forget_locks 1` as root will instruct the server to forget
+one lock.  Running `inject_faults forget_locks` will instruct the server to
+forgetall locks.
