[Chen Gang <gang.chen@asianux.com>]

Hello ltp-list@lists.sorceforge.net 

1) Firstly:

   A) LTP is a very useful tools for Asianux to test Linux kernel.
   B) Thank LTP very much.
   C) During test, Asianux find an issue about LTP
      Asianux think maybe it will be better to let LTP know about it.


2) Description:

   A) with default configuration for /opt/ltp/testscripts/ltpstress.sh
   B) it tests the nfs with client and server under the same machine
   C) it is an known issue about it.

3) Reference

   A) Red Hat Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=858978
   B) LKVM Mailing list: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/16/1  (at tail)

> Running the client and server on the same machine is likely to deadlock
> due to memory pressure issues. The client needs to be able to _increase_
> memory pressure on the server in order to reduce its own pressure. That
> doesn't work well when client == server.



  At last, hope these information are useful for LTP,  thanks.
