I've seen that on Linux as well. Funnily enough also with faulty file systems. I think NFS with spotty wifi for one.

Oh, and once with a dying RAID controller. That was a pain in the ass. At that point I swore to only ever do RAID in software.

oh yeah now that you say, SMB/CIFS mounted share if connection is no more. when I experienced this, it was temporary though, because there's a timeout which is half (or double?) of the configurable reconnection timeout. but now that I think of it, I'm not sure if it made it unkillable.

Add a -f to your umount and you can clear up those blocked processes. Sometimes you need to do it multiple times (seems like it maybe only unblocks one stuck process at a time).

When you mount your NFS share you can add the "soft" option which will let those stuck calls timeout on their own.
