If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Trond Myklebust mainline: 5cef338b30c110daf547fb13d99f0c77f2a79fbc Neil Brown said: > Hi Trond, > > We found that a machine which made moderately heavy use of > 'automount' was leaking some nfs data structures - particularly the > 4K allocated by rpc_alloc_iostats. > It turns out that this only happens with filesystems with -onolock > set. > The problem is that if NFS_MOUNT_NONLM is set, nfs_start_lockd doesn't > set server->destroy, so when the filesystem is unmounted, the > ->client_acl is not shutdown, and so several resources are still > held. Multiple mount/umount cycles will slowly eat away memory > several pages at a time.
