Subject: 2.6.36-rc1 hangs during XFS barrier test for /
To: linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hello,
after installing 2.6.36-rc1 my system gets stuck during "Mounting root..."
I'm using an initramfs to mount the root fs, because I'm using a
stacked setup with md (raid1) -> dm-crypt -> xfs.
Strange side effect: sometimes the cursor stops blinking for a few
seconds, but then resumes blinking. Each of these blinking stalls are
accompanied by a RCU stall message.

The system is stuck at this point, with just the RCU messages
repeating until I reboot.
I did not see any OOPS or other error messages in the dmesg before this point.
Unrelated additional problem: On bootup with 2.6.36-rc1 I get ~800
bytes of random binary garbage via early_printk=serial. This does not
happen with 2.6.35 and earlier kernels.
Restart with earlier kernel:

The later repeat is OK (even on 2.6.36-rc1), so I suspect some problem
during the early init of the serial console, not some corruption of
the dmesg itself:
