I'm getting this under moderate NFS load:

Nov  6 17:39:56 iq kernel: svc: server socket destroy delayed (sk_inuse: 1)
Nov  6 17:40:08 iq kernel: svc: unknown program 100227 (me 100003)
Nov  6 19:06:11 iq kernel: svc: server socket destroy delayed (sk_inuse: 1)
Nov  6 19:38:48 iq kernel: svc: server socket destroy delayed (sk_inuse: 1)

What do these means? Is this a kernel bug?

Your Suns are using TCP mounts, this got introduced into 2.2.18 somewhere and is a bit broken, do a patch -R with ftp://oss.sgi.com/www.projects/nfs3/download/nfs_tcp-2.2.17.dif and these go away. Suns try TCP mounts first. Be careful to unmount them first or they will hang waiting for the TCP server to come back up.

I really really think this should be backed out -- or at the very least disabled. The code wasn't part of the dhiggen merge, it wasn't tested, and it doesn't work well. Heck, it's still experimental and not recommended in 2.4.0-test.

What's worse, it will burn everybody out there who is using am-utils or an automounter that tries TCP mounts first. NFS/UDP server support in 2.2.18 is so much better than in previous versions, it would a shame to ruin it with this ill-fated patch.

  It is better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool,
            than to open it and remove all doubt.

Its now an experimental option in my pre21 build tree. So people can play with it and debug it if they wish
