Hello,
We upgraded kernel on all system of a cluster and have some troubles
with Apache 2. The architecture is composed by 4 NFS clients and 1 NFS
Server, all based on 3.8.8 kernel version ( before, it was 2.6.32 on all
systems and was running with no problem )
Sometimes and after having reboot on kernel 3.8.8, NFS Clients display
this trace in the dmesg :
[12100.793549] INFO: task apache2:8695 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
[12100.793577] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs"
disables this message.

The NFS Server exports a filesystem formatted in ReiserFS ( we mean it
was the problem ) and we migrate to ext4, the problem is always present.
I have one other architecture with a NFS Server based on a 2.6.24 Kernel
and some clients with a 3.8.8 Kernel, the problem doesn't appear.
We made some tests with a 3.2 kernel and it was the same problem.
Can you give me some help ?
Thanks a lot.
Best Regards.
