You don't happen to have more lines of the stack trace? I fear this might be another case of direct reclaim hitting you. Try backporting commit 070ecdca54dde9577d2697088e74e45568f48efb "xfs: skip writeback from reclaim context", that should get rid of places calling into ->writepage with already deep stack usage. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
