Actually we get a recursive callchain there from the I/O error handling. I switched from always 0 to always 1 here in: commit 08023d6dbe840dc4271805a9ea376fcbdee9f744 Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jul 2 06:00:04 2012 -0400 xfs: prevent recursion in xfs_buf_iorequest but I never got around fixing the root cause by cleaning up the way we handle buffer I/O completions on a shut down filesystem. So I guess Eric's fix is the best we can do for now. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
