The following patch adds a procfs tunable that allows you to force a
core when a "busy inodes after umount" problem occurs. It also changes
the classic error message to be something a bit less cryptic to users.

I know there was a fix for a "Busy inodes after unmount" problem in
2.4.6-pre3. Here's an excerpt from a posting to the NFS mailing list
from Neil Brown:
-Included message---
Previously anonymous dentries were hashed (though with no name, the
hash was pretty me
I reported this a couple of months back. It's reassuring to know that it's a

Hi,
Here is how I manage to hit this under 2.4.0-test11-pre6
1. mkfs an ext2 filesystem on a 36G disk
2. do a complex combination of data and metadata io on it by means

3. observe that both high and low memory are almost zero, i.e. about
12 matches
