Hi fsdevel, I have been observing hangs when running xfstests generic/224. Curiously enough, the test is *not* causing problems on the FS under test (I've tried both ext4 and f2fs) but instead it's causing the 9pfs that I'm using as the root filesystem to crap out. How it shows up is that the test doesn't finish in time (usually takes ~50 sec) but the hung task detector triggers for some task in d_alloc_parallel(): [ 660.701646] INFO: task 224:7800 blocked for more than 300 seconds.

This happens in a 2-core QEMU+KVM vm with 2GB RAM using its internal 9p server (-virtfs local,path=MOUNTPOINT,security_model=none,mount_tag=store).
