I have just installed and configured a xfs file system on Redhat AS4 server,
running on IBM eServer 366 platform.  The file system was carved out of our
EMC SAN, with Qlogic HBA dual port fiber channel cards. The error message is
as follows:

Dec  4 09:43:11 mail kernel: XFS: possible memory allocation deadlock in
kmem_alloc (mode:0x250)
Dec  4 09:43:14 mail kernel: XFS: possible memory allocation deadlock in
kmem_alloc (mode:0x250)
Dec  4 09:43:15 mail kernel: XFS: possible memory allocation deadlock in
kmem_alloc (mode:0x250)
Dec  4 09:44:44 mail kernel: XFS: possible memory allocation deadlock in
kmem_alloc (mode:0x2d0)

RHEL4 doesn't support xfs ;-)

You might have highly fragmented files, and xfs_fsr might help with this...
