 JFS uses 32-bit readdir cookies but if I understand
 fs/jfs/jfs_dtree.c::add_index() correctly then they are sequential,
 unlike the hashes ext2/3/4 use.

 I see things like:

 [593351.877678] NFS: directory fs/nfsd contains a readdir loop.Please contact 
 your server vendor.  The file: .nfs3proc.o.cmda.com has duplicate cookie 73
 [593351.904689] NFS: directory fs/nfsd contains a readdir loop.Please contact 
 your server vendor.  The file: .nfs3proc.o.cmda.com has duplicate cookie 73

Ok, please file a separate bug (or clone this one if you prefer).

My best guess at the moment is that the filesystem is corrupted on the
server side.  If you have run fsck to rule that out, that would be a
comfort.

 Please keep in mind that these appear as emails in a crowded inbox, so
 the subject line can be a good place to put valuable context.

Sorry, yes, though further investigating I can see this happening on
exports that are JFS on the server side, so I'm not sure the patches
already in this bug report are applicable. I've done a little digging
but I can't see anything similar in upstream for anything other than
ext3/4 but I'm not entirely clear if that's because it's not necessary,
or because things like JFS aren't in use as much. I'll keep digging and
update if I find anything.
