The following reply was made to PR kern/79700; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Stephan Uphoff <ups@tree.com> To: Dylan Simon <dylan@dylex.net> Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: kern/79700: suspending nfs file access hangs other access to the file Date: Thu, 19 May 2005 18:52:14 -0400 This is a problem with the usage of interruptible sleep in the NFS code. The following description of the problem in NetBSD should be close enough to the FreeBSD problem. http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2003/06/27/0022.html I don't think this will be fixed anytime soon and I recommend not using the "intr" option. ( In my opinion the "intr" option should never be used during normal operation since file operations may not behave as expected by programs ) Stephan
