I'm running Arla 0.23 with FreeBSD 3.1-STABLE. I've been testing Arla
by configuring and compiling the Arla source in an AFS directory, and
I'm having a problem with random hangs.
It usually hangs while running configure. Sometimes I can run it
serveral times in row without problems; other times it hangs on the
first attempt. I can kill the configure process to get out of the
hang, but from then an `ls -l' in that directory hangs. (Plain `ls'
doesn't, so it's likely a stat() call that's hanging.) Everytime a
process hangs, another arlad worker is used up. Eventually I run out
of workers. Restarting arlad gets things working again.
Here is an excerpt from the arlad log. These messages repeat over and
over:
Wed Apr 21 11:01:55 1999: arlad: worker 1: processing
Wed Apr 21 11:01:55 1999: arlad: Rec message: opcode = 22 (pioctl), size = 2096
Wed Apr 21 11:01:55 1999: arlad: sending wakeup: seq = 158114, error = 0
Wed Apr 21 11:01:55 1999: arlad: Send message: opcode = 23 (wakeup_data), size = 2072
Wed Apr 21 11:01:55 1999: arlad: worker 1: done
Any idea what might be causing this?
