Looks good. After fixing my multipath.conf file device node blacklist to specify "hdc" and "hdd" instead of just "hd", [:((] I had three consecutive NDU test runs without hanging up on synchronous syslog calls from multipathd. Considering I couldn't get one of these test runs to work before, I'd consider the syslog deadlock problem fixed. The bad news is that the first run hung up on the inode deadlock involving bdget_disk() calls in the dm map reload code path (__set_size, __lock_fs, or __unlock_fs) one an inode which is already locked. Also, the multipathd died on the last of the 3 runs. No idea what was wrong. I noticed you have changed multipath to allow concurrent execution. Was this done in order to not lose recovery from i/o failure events in the waitevent and path test failures in the checkerloop pthreads of multipathd?
