The autofs connectathon tests I use function fine. I also tested sending a SIGKILL to the daemon with about 180 active mounts and restarted the daemon to test the function of the ioctls that Al was concerned about. While the connectathon test expired everything I had 3 mounts left after allowing sufficient expire time with the SIGKILL test. Those mounts correspond to one map entry that has a mix of NFS vers=3 and vers=2 mount options and NFSv2 isn't supported by the servers I use in testing. I'm inclined to think this is a bug in the automount mount tree re-connection code rather than a problem with this patch since all the other mounts, some simple and others with not so simple constructs, expired fine after automount re-connected to them. There are two other map entries that have an NFS vers=2 option but they are simple mounts that will fail on attempting the automount because the server doesn't support v2 so they don't end up with mounts to reconnect to. This particular map entry, having a mix of NFS vers=3 and vers=2 in the offsets of the entry, will lead to a partial mount of the map entry which is probably not being handled properly by automount when re-connecting to the mounts in the tree. So I think the patch here is fine from an autofs POV. Ian
