Well, I know nothing about jails, so I can't answer either of these.
All I can tell you is that 127.0.0.1 no longer works as localhost when
jails are run for some situations which I don't understand and that
breaks the nfsuserd upcall. (Something about 127.0.0.1 being replaced
by the first IP# for the net interface when jails are running?)
The patches in PR#205193 change nfsuserd to use a local socket,
which fixes this problem. However, the original poster of the PR had
hangs when using the patches which was never resolved (I couldn't
reproduce the hang).
--> It has been a couple of years, but I recall that the hang was in the
unix socket code, so I believed it was caused by having mutiple
processes trying to use the socket concurrently.
--> The original poster never confirmed if using a single daemon
avoided the hang.
As such I am stuck until someone can test the patches? rick

Does it indeed break when jails are used, or does it break when the daemon
is started in a jail ?
And does it break on a jail/vnet too ?
