xfs and nfs on 2.4 kernels?

[Jon Lewis <jlewis@xxxxxxxxx>]

Are there any known issues with XFS and NFS in 2.4?  I just had a server 
(running and old kernel) lock up and get upgraded to 2.4.31-xfscvs20050617 
(it's been running on our test server almost 2 months) on reboot.  After 
the reboot, the two NFS clients of this server were having serious issues. 
They could ls the exported/mounted directory, but could not read files or 
directories within that directory.  Attempts to do so would result in 
"Stale NFS file handle" errors.

After a bunch of reboots on the server and clients, NFS mostly works, but 
still gives occasional Stale NFS file handle errors.
