Subject: Re: Processes spinning forever, apparently in lock_timer_base()?
This sounds an awful lot like the same problem I reported with fsck
hanging. I believe that Hugh had a candidate patch for that, which was
related to dirty tracking limits. It seems that that patch tested, and
acked by Peter. All on lkml under:
2.6.23-rc6-mm1 -- mkfs stuck in 'D'
