Hi,
Since two months, I can see the following strange messages logged each
time that rpc.nfsd is started:
Feb 11 21:46:23 bilbo nfsd[18672]: nfssvc: writting fds to kernel failed: errno 0 (Success)
Feb 11 21:46:23 bilbo nfsd[18672]: nfssvc: writting fds to kernel failed: errno 0 (Success)
It seems however harmless, the NFS server works fine.
AFAICS, these messages appeared with some kernel between 2.6.18 and
2.6.19. I don't know which one exactly. With earlier kernels, the
file /proc/fs/nfsd/portlist does not exist, and the function
nfssvc_setfds() from support/nfs/nfssvc.c (in nfs-utils) exits early
and silently.
This issue has recently reported in the Debian bug tracking system. See
http://bugs.debian.org/408669
Regards,
Arnaud Giersch

Yes, it is harmless - except that it causes concern.
The following kernel patch should stop the error (and a separate patch
will fix the typo in the error message...)
Thanks,

Thanks. The patch looks ok to me, but I am sorry I can't test it for
the moment. =
The machines running an NFS server that I have access to are either
our main server at work, or my old home server which takes several
hours to build a new kernel.
