Still working out which one and why. I suppose it's still possible it's an ext4 bug but if so the page-writeback.c changes exposed it. It's a classic deadlock; I usually have 2 threads stuck, pdflush vs. the livecd creator doing an fsync. Each is waiting for a page the other has locked. -Eric -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
