Package: nfs-kernel-server
Version: 1:1.1.4-1
Severity: normal
Description of problem:
Periodically, and with no obvious cause, all NFS connections between our
Debian Testing (_Squeeze_) x86 client (a diskless node which uses nfsroot
and boots from the server) and our Debian Testing (_Squeeze_) x86 server
hang ang and dmesg on the client side informs that the server is "not
responding".
The server is responding to everyone else's requests.
Restarting the nfsd on the server doesn't appear to solve the problem.
At first I wasnt able to capture some debug information since /var/log was
mounted over the nfs, so I have installed a hard drive where I mounted
only /var/log to be able to capture debug logs from the client as well.
Debug Logs:
http://fixity.net/tmp/client.log.gz - Kernel RPC Debug Log from the client
http://fixity.net/tmp/server.log.gz - Kernel RPC Debug Log from the server
How reproducible:
Happens from 10 to 90 minutes after booting the diskless node.
Actual results:
NFS connections stop responding, system hangs or becomes very slow and
unresponsive (it doesnt respond to Ctrl+Alt+Del as well). 60 to 90 minutes
after the first server time out client says server OK but the client is
still unresponsive. Immediately after that the client logs server connection
loss again which leads to continues loop. Client is still unresponsive.
Sometimes client resumes normal operation for couple of hours but then the
problem repeats.
Connectivity info:
Both the client and the server are connected to Gigabit Ethernet Cisco Metro
series managable switch. Both of them use Intel Pro 82545GM Gigabit Ethernet
Server Controllers. Neither one of them log any Ethernet errors and none are
logged by the switch.
Expected results:
NFS connections continue to function and don't fail like clockwork when
every other client on the network has no issues.
Client & Server Load:
For the purposes of testing both machines were only running needed daemons
and weren't loaded at all.
Client & Server Kernel:
On both the client and server custom compiled linux 2.6.29.3 kernel was used.
Configuration file @ http://fixity.net/tmp/config-2.6.29.3.gz
Client & Server Network interface fragmented packet queue length:
net.ipv4.ipfrag_high_thresh = 524288
net.ipv4.ipfrag_low_thresh = 393216
Client Versions:
libnfsidmap2/squeeze uptodate 0.21-2
nfs-common/squeeze uptodate 1:1.1.4-1
Client Mount (cat /proc/mounts | grep nfsroot):
10.11.11.1:/nfsroot / nfs rw,vers=3,rsize=524288,wsize=524288,namlen=255,
hard,nointr,nolock,proto=tcp,timeo=7,retrans=10,sec=sys,addr=10.11.11.1 0 0
Client fstab:
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/nfs / nfs defaults 1 1
none /tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /var/run tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /var/lock tmpfs defaults 0 0
none /var/tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0
Client Daemons:
portmap, rpc.statd, rpc.idmapd
Server Daemons:
portmap, rpc.statd, rpc.idmapd, rpc.mountd --manage-gids
Server Versions:
libnfsidmap2/squeeze uptodate 0.21-2
nfs-common/squeeze uptodate 1:1.1.4-1
nfs-kernel-server/testing uptodate 1:1.1.4-1
Server Export:
/nfsroot 10.11.11.*(rw,no_root_squash,async,no_subtree_check)
Server Options:
RPCNFSDCOUNT=16
RPCNFSDPRIORITY=0
RPCMOUNTDOPTS=--manage-gids
NEED_SVCGSSD=no
RPCSVCGSSDOPTS=no
Additional Info:
Since I have read that tweaking the nfsroot mount options could improve the
situation a have tested with different options as follows:
rsize/wsize=1024|2048|4096|8192|32768|524288
timeo=15|60|600
retrans=3|10|20
None resulted in solving the problem.
Any help or suggestions on fixing the problem would be highly appreciated. I
have been messing with that problem for the last couple of weeks and ran out
of ideas.
Best Regards,
Jerome Walters
