Okay. Well, one month later, it happened again to me.

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?
