I hope it's still okay to ask for assistance here.
I have a NVIDIA Shield Pro 2019 that has a samba server built in and
is sharing a Western Digital external hard drive. The client with an
issue is an x86 laptop PC from Asus. The linux distro I'm running on
the client side is CachyOS (x86-v3 optimized arch linux).
The shares from the NVIDIA Shield mount fine, and are visible and I
can browse them fine. In fact, I've never had trouble so far with
upstream writes from the client to the server. It's only downstream
transfers from the server the client that eventually fail if the file
size is large enough to need a few minutes to transfer. Infrequently,
my entire desktop will lock up, suggesting a kernel panic, but it's a
rare and I don't have steps that reliably cause it to happen. (Well,
it happens every time if I use vers=2.0 in the mounting configuration,
but that is not the default configuration or my current mount
configuration).
If I initiate a copy from the terminal, the error message I get is:
cp: error reading '<filename>': Resource temporarily unavailable
These problems *does* happen with kernels:
6.13.2-arch1-1.1-g14
6.13.2-2-cachyos
6.12.13-1-cachyos-lts
The problem *does not* happen with kernel:
6.6.77-1-lts66
Windows 11 (I dual boot)
The shares are configured in /etc/fstab as:
//192.168.50.144/internal /cifs/nvidia-internal cifs
credentials=/etc/samba/credentials/nvidia,defaults,noperm,noauto,vers=3.1.1,x-systemd.automount
