Subject: race-free exportfs and unmount?
Date: Fri, 21 Mar 2014 14:17:13 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <532C9E49.2030007@windriver.com> (raw)
Hi,
There was a linux-nfs thread in July 2012 with the subject "Linux NFS
and cached properties". It discussed the fact that you can't reliably do
exportfs -u 192.168.1.11:/mnt
umount /mnt
since there could be rpc users still running when exportfs returns, so
the umount fails thinking the filesystem is busy.
I'm running into this on a production system.
Was anything ever done to resolve this issue?
If not are there any workarounds?
Please cc me, I'm not subscribed to the list.
Chris
