This is regarding the "lu_env *env" code in lmv_fld_lookup() and fld_client_lookup()

The function lmv_fld_lookup() calls fld_client_lookup() by passing NULL for lu_env.

fld_client_lookup(&lmv->lmv_fld, fid_seq(fid), mds,
                               LU_SEQ_RANGE_MDT, NULL);

And in fld_client_lookup(), it checks for env != NULL which will always be false.
There will always be an assertion if target->ft_srv != NULL.

#ifdef HAVE_SERVER_SUPPORT
if (target->ft_srv != NULL) {
		LASSERT(env != NULL);
			rc = fld_server_lookup(env, target->ft_srv, seq, &res);
	}
#endif /* HAVE_SERVER_SUPPORT */

Is the env initialisation missed here?

In the old code (please see d2d56f38da01001c92a09afc6b52b5acbd9bc13c), fld_client_lookup was called from lmv_fld_lookup and from cmm_fld_lookup.
Today fld_client_lookup is called only from lmv_fld_lookup, but env is always set to NULL in both, the old code and current code.

Is it required to change the prototype of fld_client_lookup - delete "lu_env *env" and clean all code connected with "env" in fld_client_lookup?

Our use case: The server build is installed on lustre client. We need to have possibility to start server lustre on clients. Hence, the HAVE_SERVER_SUPPORT part of the code needs to be executed on client.

With 2 MDTs (MDT0000 AND MDT0001), test_404/sanity-hsm deactivates the last MDT(MDT0001) in the list of export targets(&target->ft_chain).
fld_client_lookup() retries for another target, if the remote target is deactive. This was introduced in http://review.whamcloud.com/#/c/14313/
While getting the next export target from the list using:

target = list_entry(target->ft_chain.next, struct lu_fld_target,ft_chain);

&(target->ft_chain) is the last entry in the list, and the next of the last entry(target->ft_chain.next) is the head of the list.
Now, using the macro, ​list_entry​ maps the head of the list pointer back into a pointer to the structure that contains the list_head. Thus, it turns the head of the list into its containing structure(lu_fld_target).
Now since the head of the list does not have any data associated with it, the containing structure(i.e. target) formed from the head of the list also does not have any data. Hence, an export target with no obd device data is generated.
This corrupted export target(generated from the head of the list) causes the assertion.

The fix is: While fld_client_lookup retries for another target,if the next entry in the export target list is the head of the list(&fld->lcf_targets), move to the next entry after
the head(target->ft_chain.next->next) and retrieve the target. Else retrieve the next target entry(target->ft_chain.next).
