As a note: I was pointed to a recent lockup (double lock acquisition) in XFS with NFS. I don't think I have seen this one in the wild myself. Right now I am fighting an NFS over RDMA crash in 2.6.26 which seems to have been cured in 2.6.26.1 . .2 is almost out, so will test with that as well.

This said, our experience with xfs has been quite good (performance, reliability, etc). Some vendors kernels (2.6.18 ahem!) have some issues with xfs (and a bunch of other things), so we usually update them anyway.

Joe,

They have posted a patch to correct this problem on the linux-nfs list if anyone is encountering it.
