It is an improvement but a crash can still be triggered!
This time the lock is solid with no oops!
Test setup:
A dual PPro, redhat-5.1 box mounting homedirectories from a PPro
redhat-5.0 box.
The network is 100 Mb, full duplex, 2x3c905 busmastering.
Client: vanilla 2.1.117 + the nfs/write.c patch
Server: vanilla 2.1.108
Test case:
A user with an NFS home and a 200 Mb nsmail-directory removes all
summary-files and runs the command "Empty Trash Folder".
(copy mail by mail from file.old to file.new)
Test data:
2.1.117 SMP: crashes 2 out of 2 runs
2.1.117 UP: success 3 out of 3 runs
Do you think any of the debug code in 2.1.117ac1 catches the crash?
