All i can say is that the kernel compiles and runs. On my testbox I can't reproduce the fs crash, seems 2.6.29.4 is more stable than 2.6.30/31. I've tried Erics steps to reproduce for 2.6.30/31, tried stressing the nfs mount with iozone, tried recursive unpacking and removing eclipse (a lot of small files) and this in a lot of parallel tasks. Nothing triggers the bug. You know, if I can't reproduce it I can't say whether it is fixed or not. I'll update one server this week with the patched kernel and switch nfs on again, and wait then for the next crash. Hope that comes never.
