Hi Trond et all There is a bug, when i test NFSv3 file's lock as followed: Step1: ClientA and ClientB open a same nfs file; Step2: ClientA locks file with write lock, it's ok; Step3: Cut off the network between ClientA and Server; Step4: ClientB can not acquire for write lock successful forever, even though the network partition larger than NLM_HOST_EXPIRE. As i know, If use NFSv4, step4 can success after LEASE_TIME. Is it necessary to fix NFSv3 ? The attached patch can make this case OK, but i am not sure it's good.
