Bug #847

Updated by tuxillo almost 11 years ago

Hey, 

 

 I just experienced the infamous ``cache_lock: blocked on 0xd591d418 ""'' message.    Checking why the process got stuck revealed that the lock is actually being held by another process which is in the process of doing a lstat(2) on /mnt, a nfs mount which server went away.    The stuck process is doing the same, fwiw. 

 

 So here it is not a namecache bug, but rather an artifact of nfs being stuck.    Anoying nevertheless.    Anybody have a clue how to fix that?    Yea, mount with -intr.    Why don't we do that per default? 

 

 cheers
