Re: Kernel 3.4.X NFS server regression

I'm replying to this bug report since I found another nfs server regression with the same kernel version (3.4.2), so the subject matches. This time it is a "kernel BUG at fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c:1044"

Since the machine was not responsive after the BUG and rebooted I was only able to take a picture of the full stacktrace. You can download it from here:

The patch "[PATCH] rpc_pipefs: allow rpc_purge_list to take a NULL waitq pointer" was not applied for this trace, but the bug is the same with this patch applied. So there must be another problem.

The crash is reproducable just by creating some nfs traffic and I can hit it within minutes.

regards,
Joerg
