Hi all Recently we migrated an NFS server from a 32-bit environment running kernel 4.14.128 to a 64-bit 5.15.x kernel. The NFS configuration remained unchanged between the two systems. On two separate occasions since the upgrade (5 Jan under 5.15.10, 14 Jan under 5.15.12) the kernel has oopsed at around the time that an NFS client machine is turned on for the day. On both occasions the call trace was essentially identical. The full oops sequence is at the end of this email. The oops was not observed when running the 4.14.128 kernel. Is there anything more I can provide to help track down the cause of the oops?
