Thanks for the report. This is one we've been struggling with for a little while. Mark has a patch in this thread that seems to work ok: http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2012-08/msg00463.html And Dave is also working toward a fix in this thread: http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2012-08/threads.html#00493 I think that this will be resolved soon. For now there are a few options that seem to work around the problem, as described in the first thread.
