Our nfs server, running 4.6.5, doesn't last more than 2-3 days. There are several errors in the log that seem to be nfs4 related. After many of these errors the machine eventually crashes: Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: general protection fault: 0000 [#2] SMP Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: Modules linked in: Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: CPU: 0 PID: 19621 Comm: nfsd Tainted: G D I 4.6.5 #1 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: Hardware name: SGI.COM SGI MIS Server/S2600JF, BIOS SE5C600.86B.01.03.0002.062020121504 06/20/2012 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: task: ffff881fe24dd940 ti: ffff880e61bd8000 task.ti: ffff880e61bd8000 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81252ef2>] [<ffffffff81252ef2>] nfsd4_del_conns+0x72/0xc0 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: RSP: 0018:ffff880e61bdbce0 EFLAGS: 00010246 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: RAX: ffff880b8a34b758 RBX: ffff880b8a34b740 RCX: dead000000000100 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: RDX: dead000000000200 RSI: 0000000000000001 RDI: ffff880e22af6078 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: RBP: ffff880e22af6000 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 00004c0ca729bd38 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 0000000000000001 R12: ffff881aaa9c4800 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: R13: ffff880fe21ab298 R14: ffff881aaa9c4b30 R15: ffff880fe21ab200 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff880fffc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: CR2: 00007f716a49c000 CR3: 0000000001c06000 CR4: 00000000000406f0 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: Stack: Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: ffff880fe21ab218 ffff881aaa9c4800 ffff880fe21ab200 ffff881aaa9c4b38 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: ffff880c9ace8c80 0000000000000000 ffffffff812532a6 ffff881aaa9c4830 Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: ffff881aaa9c4800 ffff880e61bdbd40 ffff881aaa9c4868 ffffffff81254c7f Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: Call Trace: Aug 4 07:39:57 urquell kernel: [<ffffffff812532a6>] ?
