The difference is that rpc_pton4() starts with memset(sap, 0, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)); That clears the port number that was set in nfs_remount(), and so the comparison in nfs_compare_remount_data() fails. Does the following patch fix the problem? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- NFS: Fix port initialisation in nfs_remount() From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@xxxxxxxxxx> The recent changeset 53a0b9c4c99ab0085a06421f71592722e5b3fd5f (NFS: Replace nfs_parse_ip_address() with rpc_pton()) broke nfs_remount, since the call to rpc_pton() will zero out the port number in data->nfs_server.address. This is actually due to a bug in nfs_remount: it should be looking at the port number in nfs_server.port instead...
