Chuck, I didn't see any followup to this. Is it still happening in current
kernels?
i have not been able to reproduce it with the aforementioned NFS patches
removed. i'm now convinced it was a bug in one of the NFS patches i had
applied, even though none of them come near the fraglist stuff, but i
haven't had a chance to nail it down.
i had implemented a patch to cause the RPC client to reuse the port
number when reconnecting to the server after the server drops the
connection... this is a standard practice for other RPC implementations.
i suspect it was that patch that was causing the trouble.
thanks for the follow-up!
