Hi Alex, I tried git bisect and it ended up in a qla2xxx fix (and I do not even have qlogic card in that system). I did it couple more times and landed on different patches. My latest (fourth ot fifth, I forgot :) bisect landed on the patch with commit 546a1924224078c6f582e68f890b05b387b42653 ( writeback: write_cache_pages doesn't terminate at nr_to_write <= 0) I verified that this is valid patch by running the test script 180 for nearly 500 times on the tree just prior to this patch. chandra On Thu, 2011-06-16 at 16:29 -0500, Alex Elder wrote: > On Tue, 2011-06-14 at 11:51 -0700, Chandra Seetharaman wrote: > > Hello All, > > > > test case 180 fails often (4 out of 5) in my x86_64 system. > > Any suggestions on how to proceed to debug ? > > I have been seeing failures like that sometimes > (more often recently I think) for a while.
