Are you sure this is solved? I got hit by this today after trying to check the report from another Debian user: https://bugs.debian.org/1091439 the earlier report was https://bugs.debian.org/1087900 Surprisingly I managed to hit this, after: Doing a fresh Debian installation with Debian unstable, rebooting after installation. The running kernel is 6.12.6-1 (but now believe it might be hit in any sufficient earlier version): Notably, in kernel-log I see as well [ 50.295209] RPC: Registered tcp NFSv4.1 backchannel transport module. [ 52.158301] NFSD: Using /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery as the NFSv4 state recovery directory [ 52.158333] NFSD: Using legacy client tracking operations. [ 52.158337] NFSD: Using /var/lib/nfs/v4recovery as the NFSv4 state recovery directory Normally it should have been (if using the more modern client racking operations): [ 145.851951] RPC: Registered tcp NFSv4.1 backchannel transport module. [ 146.891838] NFSD: Using nfsdcld client tracking operations. [ 146.891844] NFSD: no clients to reclaim, skipping NFSv4 grace period (net f0000000) I can reproduce it if I do in following order: Install Debian unstable, reboot after installation. Install nfs-kernel-server package with its dependencies. In our case this is nfs-utils upstream already at 2.8.2. I notice the following observation: When installing under this condition the package freshly there is not yet a valid: /var/lib/nfs/nfsdcld/main.sqlite for the nfsdcld, and so it used the legacy client tracking. At this point we get the splat. if before installing the packages I initialize /var/lib/nfs/nfsdcld/main.sqlite: mkdir -p /var/lib/nfs/nfsdcld chmod -c 0700 /var/lib/nfs/nfsdcld/ and sqlite3 /var/lib/nfs/nfsdcld/main.sqlite <<SQL CREATE TABLE parameters (key TEXT PRIMARY KEY, value TEXT); CREATE TABLE grace (current INTEGER , recovery INTEGER); INSERT OR FAIL INTO grace values (1, 0); INSERT OR FAIL INTO parameters values ("version", "4"); INSERT OR FAIL INTO parameters values ("first_time", "1"); SQL So to me it looks that the problem arises from actually starting the services were we have to fallback to the legacy method as we cannot use yet nfsdcld. One other observation: if while installing the package the nfsdcltrack utility is available and the these NFS client tracking methods are availabe, it seems that the issue is not hit, and dmesg shows [ 216.206678] RPC: Registered tcp NFSv4.1 backchannel transport module. [ 218.215961] NFSD: Using UMH upcall client tracking operations. [ 218.218074] NFSD: Using UMH upcall client tracking operations. [ 218.218078] NFSD: starting 90-second grace period (net f0000000) In the most recent nfs-utils packages we do actually not install nfsdcltrack anymore as as I understand it's encouraged to move away form it as nfsdcld is available.
