Dear Neil,
I've applied your patch, and since then there are no lockups. Before
that my application reported a lockup in a minute or two, now it has
been running for half an hour, and still running.
Thanks,
Richard

Dear devs,
I am attaching a stripped down version of the little program which
triggers the bug very quickly, in a few minutes in my test lab. It
turned out that a single NFS mountpoint is enough. Just start the
program giving it the NFS mount as first argument. It will chdir
there,
and do file operations, which will trigger a lockup in a few minutes.
I couldn't get the go code to run. But then it is a long time since I
played with go and I didn't try very hard.
If you could provide simple instructions and a list of package
dependencies that I need to install (on Debian), I can give it a try.
Or you could try this patch. It might help, but I don't have high
hopes. It adds some memory barriers and fixes a bug which would cause
a
problem if memory allocation failed (but memory allocation never
fails).
