SMP and user-space nfsserver

Hello,
I have a problem with nfsd and kernel 2.2.13 SMP. Same kernel without
SMP compiled works without problems, but with SMP compiled the client
cannot create and write files.

When I try to write into a file the nfs connection hangs and after a few seconds
the client logs something like this:

kernel: nfs: task 540 can't get a request slot

And then sometimes the server hangs without kmsgs or oops, reboot
is necessary.

# rpc.nfsd -v
Universal NFS Server 2.2beta38

Any idea what I can try to find out the problem ?

Armin
