[bug #67178] > This is fixed in 4.1.9-*. Well, it does not seem to be fixed. At least not in 4.1.9-11. "df -l" hangs because the /twist/tw14 NFS filesystem in not accessible. Below is the /proc/mounts contents, and an output of "strace -o file df -l" (terminated with Control-C) is attached. Note that /dev/hdc1 was mounted later than /twist/tw14. tw10 ~$ cat /proc/mounts rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0 /dev/root / ext3 rw 0 0 /proc /proc proc rw 0 0 usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs rw 0 0 /dev/hda3 /data ext3 rw 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs rw 0 0 automount(pid696) /triumfcs autofs rw 0 0 automount(pid709) /home autofs rw 0 0 automount(pid733) /misc autofs rw 0 0 automount(pid765) /twist autofs rw 0 0 none /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc rw 0 0 e614db:/home1/e614data /home/e614data nfs rw,v3,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,hard,intr,udp,lock,addr=e614db 0 0 dork:/home1/quraan /home/quraan nfs rw,v3,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,hard,intr,udp,lock,addr=dork 0 0 tw14:/data /twist/tw14 nfs rw,v3,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,hard,intr,udp,lock,addr=tw14 0 0 /dev/hdc1 /data1 ext3 rw 0 0 dork:/home1/andr /home/andr nfs rw,v3,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,hard,intr,udp,lock,addr=dork 0 0 lin00:/home/export /triumfcs/linux nfs ro,v3,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,hard,intr,udp,lock,addr=lin00 0 0 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): fileutils-4.1.9-11 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: strace df -l when a local filesystem is mounted later than a NFS one. Actual Results: df -l hangs on NFS mount Expected Results: df -l should never hang Additional info:
Created attachment 93805 [details] output of "strace df -l"
Please also attach /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab. Thanks.
Actually scratch that. This seems to be a separate issue: automounted filesystems. I believe this case is fixed in coreutils (in Red Hat Linux 9). Couldn't reproduce the problem in coreutils-5.0-13 from rawhide.
