Subject: NFS hang in 2.6.21.1
Date: Mon, 21 May 2007 07:18:04 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <767985.78880.qm@web54407.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)

Team,
I have been attempting to put together a linux HA NFS
server for my home environment.  I am currently
running two Debian etch 4.0 machines both running
vanilla 2.6.21.1 kernels that I compiled (exception
being the nvidia driver for video).  When I attempt to
do some performance benchmarks, a test of bonnie++
makes the NFS client stuck in a non-responsive
non-killable state.  The NFS server at this point is
not busy doing anything so I believe there may be some
condition leading to a deadlock in the client. 

jfrisk@evil:~$ df -k .
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available
Use% Mounted on
imezru-ha1:/hafs/nethome/jfrisk
                      76791424    409856  75601408  
1% /nethome/jfrisk
jfrisk@evil:~$ mount

imezru-ha1:/hafs/nethome/jfrisk on /nethome/jfrisk
type nfs (rw,hard,intr,bg,addr=192.168.69.7)

jfrisk@evil:~$ /usr/sbin/bonnie++ -f -s 100 -n 1 -r 0
Writing intelligently...done
Rewriting...                   

This is where the bonnie program hangs.
  frisk@evil:~$ ps aux | grep bonnie
jfrisk    6882  0.7  0.0   2708  1012 pts/3    D+  
09:11   0:00 /usr/sbin/bonnie++ -f -s 100 -n 1 -r 0

Top shows the user load at 1.00 (before starting is
0.10) but nothing else  of importance is running on
the system. 

I can reproduce this bug pretty consistently. I have
these machines for use by anyone on the team so I
would appreciate being guided on what to do next to
help debug this issue.  Thanks in advance!
