Hi at all,
Situation :

I have a linux client :
debian,  kernel  2.6.16
64bit
nfs-common_1%3a1.0.6-3.1_amd64.deb

rpcinfo -p localhosts stats(about nfs..)
    100000    2   tcp    111  portmapper
    100000    2   udp    111  portmapper
    100021    1   udp  34865  nlockmgr
    100021    3   udp  34865  nlockmgr
    100021    4   udp  34865  nlockmgr
    100021    1   tcp  40293  nlockmgr
    100021    3   tcp  40293  nlockmgr
    100021    4   tcp  40293  nlockmgr

And a soalris 8 with all possible patches( or better, all patches i 
found..) relative to nfs.
32bit

Client wants work with files located in a dir shared with  parameters:
share   -F   nfs     -o rw,root=nb,anon=505 /dir
Client mounts dir  in this way :
....type nfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,sync,actimeo=0,noac,addr=....,user=...)

In the shared dir  there are concurrent processes writing their own 
content on the same file.
They make files as root but with ugo 666.

In the client side  another process has a loop looking for mentioned 
file. Whenever it finds file, it tryes to read it.

Problem :
 Some times, not every times ,we face a strange lock where reader waits 
more or less for the same time( about 30sec,uhm..) lock gets acquired, 
at the end it did it.

Here's simplyfied code:

WRITER:

for (;;) {
  fd = open(file, O_WRONLY|O_APPEND|O_CREAT, 0666);
  lockf(fd, F_LOCK, 0);
  write(fd, line, LINE_SIZE);
  lockf(fd, F_ULOCK, 0);
  close(fd);

  usleep(WR_PAUSE);
}


READER:

for (;;) {
  while(access(file, F_OK))
    usleep(RD_PAUSE);

  fd = open(file, O_RDWR);
  lockf(fd, F_LOCK, 0);
  unlink(file);
  lockf(fd, F_ULOCK, 0);
  lockf(fd, F_LOCK, 0); /* incriminated lock !!! */

  while (read(fd, line, LINE_SIZE) == LINE_SIZE)
    ++line_numb;

  close(fd);
}


Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Matteo.
