Thanks :) So there are two questions: 1) Why is Giant being acquired at all? vfs_lookup.c:663 is a VFS_LOCK_GIANT indicating that you are doing a lookup on a non-mpsafe filesystem. What filesystems are being exported by the server? Previously people claimed not to be exporting any filesystems that should be marked !mpsafe, which was a puzzle. 2) Missed VFS_UNLOCK_GIANT somewhere, or broken assert. The above trace should be enough to diagnose though. Kris
