Description Atman Sense 2007-07-24 09:00:38 UTC
After a network disconnect NFSv3 mounts block the system, no reboot/shutdown possible. Processes that accessed the share are unkillable/need kill -9.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.mount a NFSv3 share: "mount -t nfs 192.168.178.100:/tmp /mnt/server-tmp"
2.stop network link: "/etc/init.d/net.ra0 stop"
3.try to reboot system

Actual Results:  
it hangs at: "killing processes using alsa" and won't do anything else
if hit ctrl-alt-del: it continues shutting down but it hangs forever when this appears: 
"cannot stop localmount as alsasound is still up"
and
"Unmounting filesystems..."

Expected Results:  
normal shutdown/reboot, no hanging processes (file-managers etc., http://www.freelists.org/archives/emelfm2/07-2007/msg00016.html)

when mounting the NFSv3 share with NFSv4 (-t nfs4) or a real nfs4-share there are no reboot/shutdown problems, but file managers are hanging also.
