Ok, I can reproduce this on a true NUMA machine. The first thing that's
interesting is that it seems to be intermittent. Occasionally I can
mount and operate on the socket, but socket requests hang most of the
time.
I turned up all of the nfsd and sunrpc tracepoints. After attempting a
mount that hung, I see only a single tracepoint fire:
<idle>-0 [038] ..s.. 5942.572721: svc_xprt_enqueue: server=[::]:2049 client=(einval) flags=CONN|CHNGBUF|LISTENER|CACHE_AUTH|CONG_CTRL
Based on the flags, svc_xprt_ready should have returned true. That should
make the xprt be enqueued and an idle thread be awoken. It looks like
that last bit may not be happening for some reason.
At this point, I'll probably have to add some debugging. I'll keep
poking at it -- stay tuned.
