Subject: Re: NFS server regression in kernel 5.13 (tested w/ 5.13.9)
Date: Mon, 9 Aug 2021 17:50:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAOv1SKCUM5cGuXWAc7dsXtbmPMATqd245juC+S9gVXHWiZsvmQ@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Managed to get the rpcdebug info for some freezes today. I had a loop
running to call the rpcbind command that Neil provided and then sleep
for 2 seconds. Each triggering event was the opening of a new video
file (I was shuffling through files with mpv). I haven't managed to
get a tcp capture yet trying to get one that isn't too massive, but
the timing is tricky, and this doesn't happen every time.
