Okay... thats solved now. Conclusions: 1) There was no XFS problem as the sync I added at the beginning of my pre= =20 hibernate script did avoid the truncated files the one time I still had the= =20 hang. Thus those appear to have been IO in flight. 2) Its not MTRR_SANITIZER as explained above nor any other mainline problem. 3) Instead problems gone, when I replaced the inofficial TuxOnIce rc7a for= =20 2.6.26 to 2.6.27 forward port patch I used[1] with the official but still n= ot=20 officially released current tuxonice for 2.6.27 patch[2]. So sorry for the noise. I just learned to prefer official upstream patches.= =20 Whether they'd be officially released or not. Can ask whether they appear t= o=20 be stable before trying one. ;) [1]=20 http://lists.tuxonice.net/pipermail/tuxonice-devel/2008-November/000357.html [2] http://www.tuxonice.net/downloads/all/current-tuxonice-2.6.27.patch.bz2 Ciao, --=20 Martin Steigerwald - team(ix) GmbH - http://www.teamix.de gpg: 19E3 8D42 896F D004 08AC A0CA 1E10 C593 0399 AE90 --nextPart1299583.gNlHiHnN2i Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkk83X0ACgkQHhDFkwOZrpDbHQCfYabC/cJcXse+xfB8z4nRz8KK TRoAnAkyr7feChoLQ0cCLGibN2Bpaudn =Z1Po -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1299583.gNlHiHnN2i-- --===============5124756331574062810== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@oss.sgi.com http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs --===============5124756331574062810==--
