>Description:
i am able to reliably hang my NFS mounts on the softiron OD1000.
when it happens, this error is printed:
[ 5344.5949679] nfs_reply: ignoring error 55
i guessed trying UDP mounts, and while i still get the error 55
message (eg, about 10 times while unpacking fresh sets sourced
from NFS), it works fine.
while it may be an msk(4) bug, my ssh session remains active and
working just fine while the NFS mount is hung, so it seems more
likely to be either an msk vs NFS problem, or something in the
NFS stack itself, than a pure msk(4) bug.
>How-To-Repeat:
mount_nfs on OD1000. make sure TCP is used.

Hi,
I have the same problem. I'm using amd64 and have tried different network
cards. The problem also occurs here. It is not a msk problem. The error
makes the nfs feel very slow.
Maybe the problem occurs only with certain NFS servers? In my case, it's a
NetApp with at 10TB volume and 7 million files.
Thank you for your efforts
Regards
Uwe
