[Bug 1037192] Re: NFS shares are mounted with wrong clientaddr or not at all

[ubm]

.. apart from this, boxen with critical paths mounted via NFS are often unable to successfully boot at all.
These are often boxen with just one physical ethernet interface, so the algorithm for determining which address to use can't be to blame.

Title:
  NFS shares are mounted with wrong clientaddr or not at all

Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  With the following fstab:

  proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0
  /dev/mapper/vg0-fat_client / ext4 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
  /dev/mapper/vg0-swap none swap sw 0 0
  spitzer:/opt /opt nfs4 auto 0 0
  spitzer:/home /home nfs4 auto 0 0

  The  /opt and /home are sometimes not mounted at all, and sometimes
  with the wrong clientaddr:

  $ mount | grep nfs
  rpc_pipefs on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw)
  spitzer:/home on /home type nfs4 (rw,clientaddr=0.0.0.0,addr=192.168.1.2)
  spitzer:/opt on /opt type nfs4 (rw,clientaddr=0.0.0.0,addr=192.168.1.2)

  Since this happens on all clients (they all get same clientaddr), this
  results in a frozen mount (cf
  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.nfs/47780)

  The "spitzer" host is only reachable via a tinc VPN, and mounting (or
  remounting) manually after boot always works and results in the
  correct clientaddr, so I believe that mountall is attempting to mount
  this too early.
