The most interesting part - it is always the same file.

ls -laF /var/autofs/local/src/openwrt/build_dir/target-mips_24kc_musl/linux-ar71xx_tiny/linux-4.14.125/arch/mips/include/generated/uapi/asm/ipcbuf.h

It becomes invisible from the client, but exists in the server. Usually takes ~4-5 builds in a loop to achieve that.

There are clearly some issues with nfs across an autofs mount (maybe for hard mounts as well), so this may warrant an upgrade.

Example test.  Run make -j 12 ; make clean in a loop on an nfs mounted openwrt tree until it fails (usually 2-3 iterations).

State on the client

ls -laF /var/autofs/local/src/openwrt/build_dir/target-mips_24kc_musl/linux-ar71xx_tiny/linux-4.14.125/arch/mips/include/generated/uapi/asm

State as seen on the server (mounted via nfs across localhost):

ls -laF /var/autofs/local/src/openwrt/build_dir/target-mips_24kc_musl/linux-ar71xx_tiny/linux-4.14.125/arch/mips/include/generated/uapi/asm

-rw-r--r-- 1 anivanov anivanov   32 Jul  8 11:40 ipcbuf.h

State on the filesystem:

ls -laF /exports/work/src/openwrt/build_dir/target-mips_24kc_musl/linux-ar71xx_tiny/linux-4.14.125/arch/mips/include/generated/uapi/asm

So actually this looks like the caching on NFS is royally fubar

Dropping caches restores things to normal, but that is not a solution. It is a diagnosis.
