Subject: 2.6.21-mm1: many processes end up in D state
Hi,
I have a problem with higher disk loads (e.g. running git-log or yum update).
Many processes end up in D state and system is unusable -- I'm not able to run
anything but smooth mouse moving when this happens.
If I wait for a 20-30sec it becomes usable. This happens in 2.6.21-rc7-mm2 and
also in 2007-04-28-05-06 broken-out snapshot. I think 2.6.21-rc6-mm1 worked
fine, but I'm uncertain. If it is important, let me know to re-test.

=======================
Note that yum works on lvm on raid0 and git too, but on the another md volume.
Both ext3s. Drivers are sata_promise and ata_piix (sata disk); CFQ scheduler.
Using noop is no change (but seems to be harder to reproduce with it). I figured
out that it probably happens when 2+ processes are on both "processors" (HT on
P4) and are IO wait (multiload-applet shows red above the half).
Swap usage is 0 all the time.
regards,
