I upgraded from 2.6.23.10 to 2.6.24.2 yesterday, and found NFS service
failing.
To be specific, all locks were blocking forever, with an endless flood
of
Feb 12 22:53:10 loki notice: kernel: statd: server localhost not responding,
timed out
Feb 12 22:53:10 loki notice: kernel: lockd: cannot monitor esperi

timed out

Feb 12 22:54:55 loki notice: kernel: statd: server localhost not responding,
timed out
Feb 12 22:54:55 loki notice: kernel: lockd: cannot monitor esperi
Feb 12 22:55:20 esperi notice: kernel: lockd: server loki.wkstn.nix not
responding, still trying
(esperi is a UML instance on the same machine, connected via a bridged
TUN/TAP interface: the bridge, and network service to esperi and to the
rest of the local net across that bridge, was fine.)
I'm currently using NFSv3 atop nfs-utils 1.1.0.33-gdd08789, with daemons
being started in the suggested order (portmap, mountd, statd
--no-notify, nfsd). This evening I'm going to try to upgrade to
nfs-utils HEAD and see if this continues.
