Subject:   Anyone seeing any NFS lockups/weirdness with latest (ish) current??

I have a typical NFS setup where I have two boxes both running -CURRENT 
from around 24 hours ago. One box runs nfsd and rpcbind, and the other 
nfsclient and mounts /usr/ports, /usr/src and /usr/obj read/write.

Since this latest cvsup I am finding that something is locking up. I am 
currently trying to run a portupgrade on the nfs client which gets 
randomly between 4-8% through downloading into the nfs mounted 
/usr/ports/distfiles and then dies.

If I try a simple ls /usr/ports from another shell it hangs as well. 
However an ls /usr/src works fine. So it is only the one mount that has 
failed.

A ps of the processes shows this:

root     2071  0.0  0.2   772  560  p5  D+    6:02PM   0:00.01 ls 
usr/ports        0  1552   0  -1  0 nfsrcv

root     2054  0.0  0.5  2604 1272  p3  S+    6:02PM   0:00.14 
/usr/bin/fetch -     0  2023   0  -8  0 nfsaio

So they appear to be waiting for something nfs related.

I can not kill -9 those processes either. They do not respond. The only 
way to make them exit is to umount -f /usr/ports where the processes 
exit normally after a successfull unmount.

I have tried mounting using NFSv2, NFSv3, Over tcp and over udp, and 
also tried IPv4 and IPv6. All give the same result.

Anyone else seeing weird behavior?

Matt.
