The shutdown hang these two patches fix was tripped over by RH QA when some other (unknown) problem resulting in trying to remove an EFI log item from the AIL when it was not in the AIL at all. The shutdown was triggered from log IO completion context, and hung trying to wait for log IO completion. IOWs, the patches will allow the shutdown to finish and the filesystem to be unmounted, but do nothing to fix the unknown problem that caused the shutdown to be triggered. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
