Is this something that is expected to work? It pretty much deadlocks during boot. I took a vmcore... the oldest RPC task (and the one that had the RPC transport locked) was a SETATTR that was waiting on an id mapper upcall, and the first task in the sending RPC wait queue was the OPEN of the /sbin/request-key program. If I disable id mapping on the NFS server then it looks like it works... -Scott -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
