Enabling NFSv4 client support completely fixed the non-interruptible NFS stalls and, strangely, also fixed the very similar stalls in my scp/sftp clients when pushing files > 800KB or so. Enabling the NFSv4 client support fixes everything even though I'm still using NFSv3 mounts explicitly/exclusively. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
