Run: # mount -t xfs /dev/loop0 /mnt on a freshly booted system and it won't like you anymore. This series fixes the broken XFS error handling for dispatch errors on synchronous reads that causes a hang, and then patches the panic it uncovers. With these two patches, the mount fails gracefully. The modification to blkdev_issue_flush is probably not the right place to check for a valid q->make_request_fn. This just patches around the problem in the simplest way possible. There's probably a better way to fix it - personally I'd prefer that we don't even get to mounting a filesystem on an unconfigured loop device... _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
