Description

Was playing with KBFS; ran into an issue when running mkdir /keybase/public/dive/Photos: it hung, and kbfs now hangs when I do anything (so it feels like when an NFS server dies out from under you)

The following was in /keybase/kbfs.error.txt

md-server: Unhandled incoming RPC

my log id: 5d2931c5218d4b9406cfc51c

Research direction

Start by reproducing mkdir /keybase/public/dive/Photos on Linux Mint 17.3 and inspect /keybase/kbfs.error.txt for the md-server: Unhandled incoming RPC entry. Use log ID 5d2931c5218d4b9406cfc51c to review the associated report; done means the hang is understood and the mkdir operation no longer leaves KBFS unresponsive.
