Working version: (kernel 2.6.31 or current git with reverted NFS patch)

22 12 0:17 / /misc rw,relatime - autofs automount(pid1720)
rw,fd=4,pgrp=1720,timeout=300,minproto=2,maxproto=4,indirect

24 22 0:19 / /misc/kabi rw,relatime - nfs IP:/home/kabi/export
rw,vers=3,rsize=524288,wsize=524288,namlen=255,soft,proto=tcp,port=65535,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=IP,mountvers=3,mountproto=tcp,addr=IP


Nonworking version:

22 12 0:17 / /misc rw,relatime - autofs automount(pid1704)
rw,fd=4,pgrp=1704,timeout=300,minproto=2,maxproto=4,indirect

24 22 0:19 / /misc/kabi rw,relatime - nfs IP:/home/kabi/export
rw,vers=2,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,namlen=255,soft,proto=tcp,port=65535,timeo=600,retrans=2,sec=sys,mountaddr=IP,mountvers=3,mountproto=tcp,addr=IP



Looks like vers=2 != vers=3 and rsize/wsize - which is also set by
the kernel itself to those lower values.
(i.e. my /etc/init.d/autofs doesn't modify localoptions - of course I
could use this to set 8192 wsize and rsize for my working kernel)
