Hi Dai,

This is really interesting, thanks a lot for trying to reproduce the issue.

Though it is interesting so see that under some circumstances lockd does 
initiate the portmapper call via udp, this is not a solution for the problem I 
am working on because, for performance reasons, I need to run NFS over TCP.

Would anyone be willing to improve the network lock manager code to make the 
transport protocol for the portmapper call configurable? For me, a simple 
tunable would be sufficient.

Thank you, Nils
