Hi,
since I updated my workstation from CentOS 7.4 to 7.5, Firefox and
Thunderbird (both 52.8.0, from CentOS repos) regularly freeze (or crash)
and cannot be restarted afterwards. Trying to start them results in a
"Bus error (core dumped)" (Firefox) and "Killed" (Thunderbird). The
system log then shows:
kernel: NFS: nfs4_reclaim_open_state: Lock reclaim failed!
each time I try to start the applications (our homedirectories are
mounted via NFS4). As far as I can see, no other applications are
affected. The workstation needs to be rebooted to fix the situation.
Has anyone else seen that or knows how to debug or fix this issue? I
tried with strace and wireshark w/o finding anything helpful.
I'm not sure what the el7 default for the Firefox
'storage.nfs_filesystem' pref is - but you could try setting it to
'true' to see if that makes a difference ?

I'll give that a try. Thanks for the hint.
That's one of Firefox' problems: There doesn't seem to be a decent
documentation for all the available configuration settings.
Cheers
