Are you maybe using the huge memory page allocation policy in your kernel? If yes, could you retry without or at least set it to madvice mode? > Apr 7 12:55:29 fileserver kernel: [ 2109.303315] bcache: > run_cache_set() invalidating existing data > Apr 7 12:55:29 fileserver kernel: [ 2109.408255] bcache: > bch_cached_dev_attach() Caching md127 as bcache0 on set > 804d6906-fa80-40ac-9081-a71a4d595378 Why is it on md?

I had a similar problem after repartitioning because I did not "wipefs" the device first. > A few hours later, I was getting stalls: > Apr 7 18:00:20 fileserver kernel: [20400.288049] INFO: task java:3610 > blocked for more than 120 seconds. > Apr 7 18:00:20 fileserver kernel: [20400.288069] Not tainted > 4.0.0-rc7 #1 > Apr 7 18:00:20 fileserver kernel: [20400.288085] "echo 0 > > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this > message. > Apr 7 18:00:20 fileserver kernel: [20400.293521] INFO: task > nmbd:22692 blocked for more than 120 seconds. > Apr 7 18:00:20 fileserver kernel: [20400.293532] Not tainted > 4.0.0-rc7 #1 > Apr 7 18:00:20 fileserver kernel: [20400.293545] "echo 0 > > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this > message.
