I created a centos 6 nfsv4 server, and went through the above recreate procedure with a trusty guest, and could successfully mount, and do file operations with accton. However after a few minutes, the console hung, and most tasks reported the following stack traces in /var/log/kern.log INFO: task ls:2101 blocked for more than 120 seconds. Not tainted 3.13.0-66-generic #108-Ubuntu "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. ls D ffff88007fd13180 0 2101 1215 0x00000004 ffff88007b14d630 0000000000000086 ffff8800374e6000 ffff88007b14dfd8 0000000000013180 0000000000013180 ffff8800374e6000 ffff88007b14d6b0 ffff88007ffd1460 0000000000000002 ffffffff812d0ce0 ffff88007b14d6a0 Call Trace: [] ? umh_keys_init+0x20/0x20 [] schedule+0x29/0x70 [] key_wait_bit+0xe/0x20 [] __wait_on_bit+0x62/0x90 [] ? umh_keys_init+0x20/0x20 [] out_of_line_wait_on_bit+0x77/0x90 [] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x40/0x40 [] wait_for_key_construction+0x6e/0x80 [] request_key+0x5c/0xa0 [] nfs_idmap_get_key+0xaf/0x1c0 [nfsv4] [] nfs_map_name_to_uid+0xef/0x150 [nfsv4] [] decode_getfattr_attrs+0xe47/0x14b0 [nfsv4] [] ? sched_clock+0x9/0x10 [] decode_getfattr_generic.constprop.102+0x8c/0xf0 [nfsv4] [] ? nfs4_xdr_dec_access+0xa0/0xa0 [nfsv4] [] nfs4_xdr_dec_getattr+0x70/0x80 [nfsv4] [] rpcauth_unwrap_resp+0x86/0xd0 [sunrpc] [] ? nfs4_xdr_dec_access+0xa0/0xa0 [nfsv4] [] call_decode+0x1df/0x870 [sunrpc] [] ? call_refreshresult+0x170/0x170 [sunrpc] [] ? call_refreshresult+0x170/0x170 [sunrpc] [] __rpc_execute+0x84/0x400 [sunrpc] [] rpc_execute+0x5e/0xa0 [sunrpc] [] rpc_run_task+0x70/0x90 [sunrpc] [] nfs4_call_sync_sequence+0x56/0x80 [nfsv4] [] _nfs4_proc_getattr+0xbe/0xd0 [nfsv4] [] nfs4_proc_getattr+0x5a/0xd0 [nfsv4] [] __nfs_revalidate_inode+0xbf/0x310 [nfs] [] nfs_opendir+0xe3/0x100 [nfs] [] do_dentry_open+0x233/0x2e0 [] ? nfs_readdir_clear_array+0x70/0x70 [nfs] [] vfs_open+0x49/0x50 [] do_last+0x564/0x1240 [] ? link_path_walk+0x256/0x880 [] ? apparmor_file_alloc_security+0x5b/0x180 [] ? security_file_alloc+0x16/0x20 [] path_openat+0xbb/0x650 [] do_filp_open+0x3a/0x90 [] ? do_mmap_pgoff+0x34e/0x3d0 [] ? __alloc_fd+0xa7/0x130 [] do_sys_open+0x129/0x280 [] ? do_page_fault+0x1a/0x70 [] SyS_openat+0x14/0x20 [] system_call_fastpath+0x1a/0x1f I then went and installed keyutils and retested, and could not reproduce the hung tasks. At first look this looks to be the endpoint for request_key_and_link out of the kernel. I will verify this tomorrow, and I will look at fixing the dependency tomorrow. Thank you,
