Subject: Upgrade to 2.6.24 breaks NFS service
Date: Wed, 13 Feb 2008 08:58:03 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87lk5pjkro.fsf@hades.wkstn.nix> (raw)

I upgraded from 2.6.23.10 to 2.6.24.2 yesterday, and found NFS service
failing.

To be specific, all locks were blocking forever, with an endless flood
of

(esperi is a UML instance on the same machine, connected via a bridged
TUN/TAP interface: the bridge, and network service to esperi and to the
rest of the local net across that bridge, was fine.)

I'm currently using NFSv3 atop nfs-utils 1.1.0.33-gdd08789, with daemons
being started in the suggested order (portmap, mountd, statd
--no-notify, nfsd). This evening I'm going to try to upgrade to
nfs-utils HEAD and see if this continues.
