There's really nothing XFS specific here, except that the old IDE driver which seems to have an issue is called by XFS in this case. What's rather confusing about the trace is that schedule() should never call into the block driver, but offload it to kblockd from how I read the code in 2.6.39 final. It used to be different before but got fixed during the rcs. > > Cheers, > Erez. > > [ 45.605295] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at drivers/ide/ide-io.c:468 > [ 45.605429] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 2464, name: dir_create.sh > [ 45.605533] 1 lock held by dir_create.sh/2464: > [ 45.605606] #0: (&(&ip->i_lock)->mr_lock){++++..}, at: [<d20efd34>] xfs_ilock+0x4f/0x67 [xfs] > [ 45.605848] Pid: 2464, comm: dir_create.sh Not tainted 2.6.39-linus+ #390 > [ 45.605946] Call Trace: > [ 45.606021] [<c10201eb>] __might_sleep+0xd5/0xdd > [ 45.606112] [<c1160cc2>] do_ide_request+0x3a/0x514 > [ 45.606199] [<c111a880>] ? cfq_service_tree_add+0x1de/0x241 > [ 45.606290] [<c111a54c>] ? cfq_prio_tree_add+0x80/0x90 > [ 45.606376] [<c1110d19>] __blk_run_queue+0x14/0x16 > [ 45.606458] [<c111bee8>] cfq_insert_request+0x403/0x40b > [ 45.606542] [<c111024e>] __elv_add_request+0x14c/0x17c > [ 45.606625] [<c111267e>] blk_flush_plug_list+0x130/0x17a > [ 45.606714] [<c11f7d0c>] schedule+0x22f/0x705 > [ 45.606795] [<c104710c>] ? mark_held_locks+0x3d/0x58 > [ 45.606879] [<c11fa2c5>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x36/0x59 > [ 45.607041] [<c1047226>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0xff/0x120 > [ 45.607195] [<c102039e>] ? get_parent_ip+0xb/0x31 > [ 45.607337] [<c1022eef>] ? sub_preempt_count+0x74/0x8d > [ 45.607495] [<d20f8e6d>] _xfs_log_force_lsn+0x229/0x26c [xfs] > [ 45.607665] [<c1047252>] ? trace_hardirqs_on+0xb/0xd > [ 45.607809] [<c102195e>] ? try_to_wake_up+0x1db/0x1db > [ 45.607967] [<d2104b30>] _xfs_trans_commit+0x373/0x47c [xfs] > [ 45.608137] [<d20f5c40>] xfs_iomap_write_allocate+0x221/0x301 [xfs] > [ 45.608307] [<d210a272>] xfs_map_blocks+0x1b9/0x1cd [xfs] > [ 45.608460] [<c10497b4>] ? __lock_acquire+0x6ff/0x76a > [ 45.608627] [<d210b327>] xfs_vm_writepage+0x284/0x441 [xfs] > [ 45.608782] [<c10668b7>] __writepage+0xb/0x23 > [ 45.608922] [<c1066c28>] write_cache_pages+0x1a9/0x271 > [ 45.609068] [<c10668ac>] ? set_page_dirty+0x5a/0x5a > [ 45.609213] [<c1066d1e>] generic_writepages+0x2e/0x43 > [ 45.609408] [<d210a4a1>] xfs_vm_writepages+0x3c/0x42 [xfs] > [ 45.640167] [<d210a465>] ? xfs_aops_discard_page+0x14a/0x14a [xfs] > [ 45.640331] [<c1066d4f>] do_writepages+0x1c/0x28 > [ 45.640474] [<c1061a1a>] __filemap_fdatawrite_range+0x5a/0x66 > [ 45.640629] [<c1062116>] filemap_fdatawrite_range+0x10/0x12 > [ 45.640790] [<d210ec46>] xfs_flush_pages+0x5c/0x94 [xfs] > [ 45.640948] [<d210921c>] xfs_release+0x107/0x1cc [xfs] > [ 45.641103] [<d210defd>] xfs_file_release+0xd/0x11 [xfs] > [ 45.641257] [<c10858fe>] fput+0xee/0x193 > [ 45.641452] [<c1082dcd>] filp_close+0x57/0x61 > [ 45.641589] [<c1090a51>] sys_dup3+0xdd/0x101 > [ 45.641722] [<c1090af5>] sys_dup2+0x80/0x8a > [ 45.641857] [<c11fadf0>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x36 > > _______________________________________________ > xfs-masters mailing list > xfs-masters@xxxxxxxxxxx > http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs-masters ---end quoted text--- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
