Subject: rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU: Workqueue:
 xfs-conv/md0 xfs_end_io

Dear Linux folks,


On a Dell PowerEdge T630/0NT78X, BIOS 2.8.0 05/23/2018 with Linux 
5.4.57, we twice saw a self-detected stall on a CPU (October 27th, 2020, 
January 18th, 2021).

Both times, the workqueue is `xfs-conv/md0 xfs_end_io`.

```

As it’s just log level INFO, is there anything what should be done, or 
was the system probably just “overloaded”?


Kind regards,

Paul
