Hi, I am getting repeatable deadlocks using 2.4.18, loop-AES-v1.6e and ciphers-v1.0e.tar.bz2. using a 2G partition for the encrypted data, losetup -e serpent256 /dev/loop5 /dev/hda9 mke2fs /dev/loop5; losetup -d to create the fs and following mount entry: /dev/hda9 /test-loop ext2 defaults,noauto,loop=/dev/loop4,encryption=serpent256 0 0 Next I have copied 240 MB random files to the fresh filesystem and bdflush as well as kupdated entered 'D' state, a few other processes that were active at that time entered the 'T' state All files have been apparently correctly copied over, can be accessed and everything else works quite well except that every (f)sync hangs - a few hours later the system is still usable.. I am running automount and knfsd which did nothing at that time. Any idea?
