Example is here: https://krzk.eu/#/builders/1/builds/2157 This was bisected to: commit 37ac86c3a76c113619b7d9afe0251bbfc04cb80a Author: Chuck Lever Date: Fri May 4 15:34:53 2018 -0400 SUNRPC: Initialize rpc_rqst outside of xprt->reserve_lock alloc_slot is a transport-specific op, but initializing an rpc_rqst is common to all transports. In addition, the only part of initial- izing an rpc_rqst that needs serialization is getting a fresh XID. Move rpc_rqst initialization to common code in preparation for adding a transport-specific alloc_slot to xprtrdma. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker Bisect log attached. Full configuration: 1. exynos_defconfig 2. ARMv7, octa-core, Exynos5422 and Exynos4412 (Odroid XU3, U3 and others) 3. NFSv4 client (from Raspberry Pi) Let me know if you need any more information.
