Hi,

this reminds me that I ran into an issue lately with the new NFS and locking 
for NFSv3 mounts on a client that ran -CURRENT and a server that ran -STABLE.

When I ran "portmaster -a" on the client, which mounted /usr/ports and 
/usr/local, as well as the location of the respective sqlite databases over 
NFSv3, the client network stack became unresponsive on all interfaces for 30 or 
so seconds and e.g. SSH connections broke. The serial console remained active 
throughout, and the system didn't crash. About a minute after the wedgie I 
could SSH into the box again, too.

The issue went away when I killed lockd on the client, but that caused the 
sqlite database to become corrupted over time. The workaround for me was to 
move to NFSv4, which has been working fine. (One more reason to make it the 
default...)

I'm not really sure how to debug this further, but would be willing to work 
with someone off-list who'd tell me what tests to run.

Lars
