Thanks for these files. I'm still having trouble reproducing the crash, but looking at logs and strace, it looks like it could be related to device mapper devices, like LVM.

I found https://bitcoden.com/answers/how-do-i-resolve-an-error-with-the-pnfs-mapping-daemon where someone said the problem started happening after a logical volume was created, but still couldn't reproduce it.

Do you have some particular LVM setup, or something out of the ordinary in that area? I tried creating a simple VG, then two LVs, even rebooted in between, but blkmapd does not crash.

There is also https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-nfs/msg87598.html that someone else pointed out, but it's unacknowledged in the mailing list, and I don't see similar commits in the upstream code yet.
