Hi, since Linux 3.5 I'm seeing these "inconsistent lock state" lockdep warnings [0]. They show up in 3.6 as well [1]. I was being told[2] that I may have run out of inode attributes. This may well be the case, but I cannot reformat the disk right now and will have to live with that warning a while longer. I got the warning again today, but 8h later the system hung and eventually shutdown. The last message from the box was received via netconsole: XFS: possible memory allocation deadlock in xfs_buf_allocate_memory (mode:0x250) This has been reported[3] for 3.2.1, but when the message was printed I was not around and could not watch /proc/slabinfo. The last -MARK- message (some kind of heartbeat message from syslog, printing "MARK" every 5min) has been received 07:55 local time, the netconsole message above was received 08:09, so two -MARK- messages were lost. sar(1) stopped recording at 08:05. These two incidents (the lockdep warning and the final lockup) may be unrelated (and timestamp-wise, they seem to be), but I thought I'd better report it.
