This time I did a ps auxww locking for the lockd process. And guess what? root 6323 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? D Jun01 0:50 [lockd] I wonder why it's in the D state. I also wonder if there's a way to get it back once it's in this state -- without reloading the kernel module or rebooting, I guess. I've collected a trace, at any rate, but lockd isn't even listed in it -- I can send it in if it makes sense. What sort of debugging can I do to figure out what's wrong here?
