           Summary: jdb2 lockup with ext3 and nfs
           Product: File System
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 3.4
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: ext3
        AssignedTo: fs_ext3@...nel-bugs.osdl.org
        ReportedBy: flo@...n.at
        Regression: Yes

When using nfs and writing some files nfsd locks up in D state and I get the
attached backtraces in dmesg. Once nfsd killed the request that triggered the
lockup, the problem will not happen again until the system has been rebooted.
(Tested over a period of 20 days)

I'm not yet sure if it happens on the first write request or only on some
special ones, but I don't really want to reboot my file server and let it hang
that often. However, if you can tell me what to look for or what debugging
features I should use, I'll be happy to try them.

I also didn't yet test if this can be reproduced when writing files directly
(without nfs), but I think it would lock up during boot in that case since I'm
running a mysqld slave on the system.

This started happening around linux 3.2 or 3.3.

I've attached the whole dmesg output (including bootup, in case this is related
to the hardware).
