Maybe it been broken that long.... :-)
But here is the obvious loop that stop that hangs a mount forever:
#8 [ffff88007a22b7e8] rpc_call_sync at ffffffffa0220210 [sunrpc]
#9 [ffff88007a22b840] nfs4_proc_setclientid at ffffffffa0505c49 [nfsv4]
#10 [ffff88007a22b988] nfs40_discover_server_trunking at ffffffffa0514489 [nfsv4]
#11 [ffff88007a22b9d0] nfs4_discover_server_trunking at ffffffffa0516f2d [nfsv4]
#12 [ffff88007a22ba28] nfs4_init_client at ffffffffa051e9a4 [nfsv4]
#13 [ffff88007a22bb20] nfs_get_client at ffffffffa04bd6ba [nfs]
#14 [ffff88007a22bb80] nfs4_set_client at ffffffffa051dfb0 [nfsv4]
#15 [ffff88007a22bc00] nfs4_create_server at ffffffffa051f4ce [nfsv4]
#16 [ffff88007a22bc88] nfs4_remote_mount at ffffffffa051790e [nfsv4]
#17 [ffff88007a22bcb0] mount_fs at ffffffff811b3dd9
The SETCLIENT times out
NFS call setclientid auth=UNIX, 'Linux NFSv4.0 10.19.60.77/10.19.60.33 tcp'
NFS reply setclientid: -110
The nfs4_discover_server_trunking() retries
NFS: nfs4_discover_server_trunking after status -110, retrying
The happens when there server is down and so the connections
fail with ECONNREFUSED:
RPC: 2 call_connect_status (status -111)
The mount system call never times out in which it did in the past.
So who do I get the system call to time out again?
