hmm, try this. kernel.panic_on_oops = 0 kernel.softlockup_panic = 0 kernel.unknown_nmi_panic = 0 kernel.panic_on_unrecovered_nmi = 0 kernel.panic_on_io_nmi = 0 kernel.hung_task_panic = 0
Make sure these are all set to 1 in /etc/sysctl.conf and then run sysctl -p Also, lets configure ftrace, see if we get lucky and can catch the deadlock as it happens. [as root] cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing echo function > current_tracer echo 16000 > buffer_size_kb echo "scsi_*" >> set_ftrace_filter echo "fc_*" >> set_ftrace_filter When the kernel crashes, I'll be able to retrieve this buffer from the dump Should none of the dump triggers work, then just watch it and trigger it yourself. # echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger The hung multipath -v0 processes are usually spawned on behalf of udev events. Before you begin the test, please record the current dm map (dmsetup table -v) and the output of (lsscsi -lv) so I have a point of reference.
