            Bug ID: 255204
           Summary: mountd: sometimes ignores SIGHUP with NFS 4 shares
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.2-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: b...@freebsd.org
          Reporter: asom...@freebsd.org

When it receives SIGHUP mountd is supposed to reload the exports list.  But in
my experience, it sometimes does not.  Sending additional SIGHUPs does not
help, so I don't think it's due to a race.  Restarting mountd is the only cure.
 Additional observations:

* Observed on 12.2-RELEASE, so it's not related to bug 246597
* Observed with NFS 4.0 Linux clients.  I think I've seen it with 4.1, too. 
I've never seen it with NFS 3.
* The usual presentation is that I mount a client from a disallowed IP address,
and the client gets EIO trying to access the share.  Then I edit the source
dataset's sharenfs property (which sends SIGHUP to mountd), but the client
still gets EIO.  I have to restart mountd to fix it.

The next time this happens, I'll try to debug it in place.
