We installed the unofficial kernel 6.8.0-46-generic-nfs on several NFS client
servers on Saturday and have been testing it with high IO loads since then.
Unfortunately the server crashed again after about 40 hours with "rcu: INFO:
rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU".
The kernel 6.8.0-46-generic-nfs prevents the error message "RPC: Could not send
backchannel reply error: -110",
but not the crashs which we have been struggling with since August 19th
switching the kernel from 6.5.0-44-generic to 6.8.0-40-generic.
Our experiences with NFS server crashes are:
- We were able to reproduce the crashes in our production and test
environments. Rarely after minutes, sometimes after hours or days, but
sometimes not at all,
as we often stopped the experiments after 12 to 24 hours.
- We have not yet been able to reproduce a crash between a bare metal NFS
server and a bare metal NFS client, but between a bare metal NFS server and a
virtualized client.
- we could not reproduce a crash with NFS vers=4.0
- the crashs happens with or without GSSPROXY
Our setup:
- virtualized NFS 4.2 server with Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS and kernel
5.15.0-122-generic
- virtualized NFS client with Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS and kernel 6.8.0-40-generic or
kernel 6.8.0-45-generic
- /etc/exports : /mnt/home
nfsclient(sec=krb5,rw,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check)
- /etc/fstab : nfsserver:/mnt/home /home nfs
vers=4.2,rw,soft,sec=krb5,proto=tcp 0 0
- apt info nfs-common : Version: 1:2.6.1-1ubuntu1.2
