https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201685 --- Comment #223 from Guenter Roeck (linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx) --- 4.18.20 seems to be ok, except that my script overburdens it a bit. [ 1088.450369] INFO: task systemd-tmpfile:31954 blocked for more than 120 seconds. [ 1088.450374] Not tainted 4.18.20+ #1 [ 1088.450375] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

I'll repeat my tests with SCSI_MQ_DEFAULT disabled on v4.19, and with it enabled on v4.18.20. We know that disabling SCSI_MQ_DEFAULT alone does not help, but maybe there is more than one problem. Any takers for a round of bisects as suggested in #221 ? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.
