Yup, that was it.
My boxen, including 64 core DL980 that ran hotplug stress for 3 hours yesterday with pre-pushdown rwlocks, say the migrate_disable/enable pushdown patches are very definitely busted. Instead of whacking selective bits, as I did to verify that the rwlock changes were indeed causing hotplug stress deadlock woes, I'm eyeballing the lot, twiddling primitives to look like I think they should, after which I'll let my boxen express their opinions of the result. -Mike -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
