https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29402 --- Comment #7 from Eric Whitney <eric.whitney@xxxxxx> 2011-02-25 03:08:48 --- Hi Lukas: When running the large_file_creates_threads=192 workload with this patch on an -rc5 kernel, I consistently saw a new failure. The ext4lazyinit thread stalled (tripping hung task detector) along with the flusher and journal threads, and ffsb then ceased to make forward progress. I think we're just seeing a new variant of the original race, where bio_batch_end_io() sometimes never gets the value of &bb->done it's waiting for: bio_batch_end_io() ... complete(bb->wait) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- 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
