I had a full system freeze (can't use mouse, keys, no network response / pong) on 2.6.23 and 2.6.22.10 when I was transferring data. The freeze only occured after a few days of runtime and only when transferring data. Not sure if it was always from or to NFS drives, but there were always NFS drives mounted. The last time it crashed was when I was transferring about 70 GB over the network from an NFS drive to another NFS drive. As I really have difficulty to reproduce this problem I ask if anyone has a system on which it is easier to reproduce "this"(assuming that there is only one error) problem. Can you test the newest kernel versions? >=2.6.23.8
Is it possible that an error such as this, can cause the problem? It's just the one that looks most likely related, but I don't know what happens to a infinite loop under the big kernel lock and how probable it is, under the known conditions, that the kernel enters this infinite loop.
