Hi We believe we have seen this deadlock issue on our XFS system and currently are trying the patch (aware of the disclaimer that it may not be production ready). However trying to repo this issue is very hard. I was interested in Dave Chinner saying that he had seen a repeatable deadlock and hoped that meant that there was either a process or method that could provoke this situation from happening. Currently we see this deadlock happen about once every 1-2 months and hence trying to speed the iteration up. Regards Gavin Will
