portmap problems with 2.5.4-pre5

portmap problems with 2.5.4-pre5

[Zwane Mwaikambo]

I tried to mount an NFS filesystem and had mount stuck in the D state for 
quite a while (minutes), this was also in my logs.

Jan  1 02:06:00 mondecino kernel: portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out
Jan  1 02:06:00 mondecino kernel: lockd_up: makesock failed, error=-5
Jan  1 02:07:40 mondecino kernel: portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out

Eventually it did mount, but i've never had this error before on that box 
(i use the box daily and do that mount more than 5 times a day). I've been 
using 2.5 on that box since 2.5.0. I seem to be able to reproduce it, so 
i'll leave the box running in case anyone wants to try anything.

box: RH 7.2 w/ 2.5.4-pre5

Cheers,

 Richard Henderson mentioned it yesterday in the Re: thread_info implementation
 thread. (msgid: 20020211154917.A19367@are.twiddle.net). I've also seen
 it recently (circa .4pre3), then it went away, and now I have a box thats also
 doing it repeatedly.

 afaik, no-one else has looked at it in detail yet (or seen it?)
