I had been unsuccesful to find a reliable way to trigger the freeze without mailman. So I created a backup mailman directory by which I can test the system. The following has been verified so far: - Removed commit 17968b0fe87829edff1af7fa9ffbbc92540159fb (Remove splice_read file op for jdata files) and commit 4787e11dc7831f42228b89ba7726fd6f6901a1e3 (gfs-kmod: workaround for potential deadlock. Prefault user pages), the system freezes. - Removed commit 5e83cdb08b423478a0b6cc8f6de396ab8328d47a (gfs-kernel: Bug 466645 - reproduceable gfs (dlm) hanger with simple stresstest), the system freezes. (Please note, the volumes are mounted with noatime). If you have any idea what to do next, please write it.
