Umm, recently I've noticed for both 3.2 && 4.0 that NFS seems to get wedged on a directory that is mounted from a Solaris 2.6 (unpatched) server- but this seems to only happen if the local mount point is a directory just off of root.
The scenario is, e.g.: bird:/export/home on /home bird:/space5/freebsd on /freebsd bird:/space5/freebsd/distfiles on /usr/ports/distfiles bird:/src/freebsd-current/src on /usr/src a 'ls' of /home hangs. Then a 'ls' of /home/mjacob and /usr/src hangs... the ps commands have: 31154 31830 31802 0 -18 0 360 212 nfsngt D+ p1 0:00.00 (ls) 31154 31869 1 0 -18 0 360 212 nfsngt D p2- 0:00.00 (ls) Sorry- this is a bit vague- I'll track it down further if this isn't already a known problem I'll track this more carefully. I first saw this with 3.2-stable, but it also is happening with -current as of today. A quick perusal of the nfs_node code doesn't suggest much to me. I should point out that both systems are 2xPPro SMP systems. -matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
