I will be very happy if this patch fixes the issue --- however, I'll note that this patch showed up in mainline shortly after 2.6.28-rc8, and it doesn't explain the reports from people who said they were not able to reproduce the problem using a stock 2.6.28 or 2.6.29-rc1 kernel.
Anyway, if more people who have been able to reproduce this bug could test the patch referenced above (there is a prebuilt available here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~rtg/2.6.28-lp348836) that would be much appreciated. -- Soft lockups (freezes) when deleting files from ext4 partitions on 2.6.28 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330824 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
