As reported in:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=106195494828814&w=2
I'm experiencing a serious NFS regression since 2.6.0-test3-bk10-final
(bk-set determined now). Since that, along the road to 2.6.0-test9,
something has gotten completely out of hand.
cp -a /mnt/oden/etc .
_2.6.0-test3-bk10_
2 minutes
_2.6.0-test3-bk10-final_
3 minutes 47 seconds
_2.6.0-test9_
29 minutes 54 seconds
Nothing has changed in hardware or setup, and the cp tests were done
today. Not being a programmer I tried to delete individual patches in
the bk-set, but couldn't find the exact breakage point.
Erasing changes to:
linux-2.6.0-test3-bk10/fs/nfs/dir.c
No change.
Erasing changes to:
linux-2.6.0-test3-bk10/fs/nfs/nfsroot.c
No change.
Erasing changes to:
linux-2.6.0-test3-bk10/include/linux/sunrpc/timer.h
linux-2.6.0-test3-bk10/net/sunrpc/timer.c
No change.
Erasing changes to:
linux-2.6.0-test3-bk10/net/sunrpc/clnt.c
Doesn't compile.
Erasing changes to:
linux-2.6.0-test3-bk10/include/linux/sunrpc/xprt.h
linux-2.6.0-test3-bk10/net/sunrpc/xprt.c
Doesn't compile.
Using TCP or DIRECTIO in -test9 makes no difference. Here's the
relevant .config-section:
#
# Network File Systems
#
CONFIG_NFS_FS=y
CONFIG_NFS_V3=y
# CONFIG_NFS_V4 is not set
# CONFIG_NFS_DIRECTIO is not set
CONFIG_NFSD=y
CONFIG_NFSD_V3=y
# CONFIG_NFSD_V4 is not set
# CONFIG_NFSD_TCP is not set
CONFIG_LOCKD=y
CONFIG_LOCKD_V4=y
CONFIG_EXPORTFS=y
CONFIG_SUNRPC=y
# CONFIG_SUNRPC_GSS is not set
# CONFIG_SMB_FS is not set
# CONFIG_CIFS is not set
# CONFIG_NCP_FS is not set
# CONFIG_CODA_FS is not set
# CONFIG_INTERMEZZO_FS is not set
# CONFIG_AFS_FS is not set

I can second the experiences on heavy trouble with 2.6.0-test[8,9] as
NFS _client_ against 2.4.2[1,2] as a server. I didn't have different
servers for testing against but I pretty much _believe_ it's a client
issue.
I only sticked to 'official' 2.6.0-test patches and I'd like to
express, that beginning with 2.6.0-test8 the NFS client is absolutely
unsuable for me. Trying to copy (with 'cp') a file from a local
filesystem to the server over NFS.V2 or .V3 completely freezes _any_
NFS traffic with the same server.
Are there any significant changes to the NFS client I should back out
for the purpose of finding the 'bug' ?

Err... If you believe it is the client, they I suggest backing out
_all_ client related patches between test7 and test8 for a start...
Personally, I'm starting to suspect some of the IPv4 changes. I'm
seeing wierd crap with the TCP code which suggests some form of memory
corruption. The corruption is occurring on both the client *and*
server side.
The fact that I'm seeing signs of memory poisoning suggests it is
probably an skb being freed too early or something like that.
Cheers,
Trond

I've been seeing NFS client problems as well....for quite sometime. I too
thought it was the NFS code, however further testing took me to possible
problems with kernel memory code.
