I'm having the same issue pointed to in the thread mentioned above: http://www.issociate.de/board/post/471929/2.6.24-rc6_reproducible_raid5_hang.html
It seems that this was fixed in kernel version 2.6.25. Would it be possible to backport this to ubuntu kernels? It's basically impossible to use XFS on SW raid without it: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=120027546428622&w=2 At least, it's impossible when dealing with multi terabyte raid5 arrays, which I don't think are particularly uncommon at this point. ** Attachment added: "raid_patch.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15353452/raid_patch.txt ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None => linux -- mdadm, Raid5 and XFS stuck in uninterruptable sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/208551 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
