Whats going on? (somebody can say something?)

[Janos Haar]

Hello list,

Good day for everibody.

I have one problem with my new linux box. (again)
The hw is tested. (memtest86, 4 days)

The samba freezed and makes 40 load.

All what i am using is in-kernel solution, excepting samba.

libata ->bock -> raid -> cryptoloop -> xfs -> [samba] ->eth

The log file is here:

http://download.netcenter.hu/bughunt/20080925/messages

some points:
Sep 24 01:15:58 - Sep 24 01:19:16 -> i have repaired the 2 xfs on loop0 and 
loop1Sep 24 14:18:00 -> only a little interesting time, when the first bug 
was issued. (cron?)Sep 25 21:47:39 -> i have logged in.Sep 25 21:50:50 -> i 
have forced the sysreq from script to make some more debug information.(I 
have saved the lsof too if somebody interested.)Any help will be 
appreciated.Thanks a lot,Janos Haar

I don't have any suggestions for your specific problem, but I can give 
some suggestions that might make it easier to get help.

In the future, please include a more meaningful subject line.  This 
mailing list has a lot of traffic, and people often skip messages that 
aren't obviously related to what they're working on.

It is usually useful to specify which exact kernel version you're using.

Additionally, sorry for the list as well.

Thanks,
Janos Haar

That's pretty much guaranteed to crash if you're using 4k stacks. Are you?

You have oopses in that log, but didn't mention them in your email or
include them within. Please read the reporting bugs document in the
kernel tree to see a better way to get the attention of those who
should be looking at your problem.

Good luck.

What kernel?

I have seen all those XFS oops/stack traces before. With the last
pull request to linus for 2.6.27-rc7, all known causes of the btree
corruption reported in your log messages should be fixed. I guess
you'll have to wait for 2.6.27-rc8 or 2.6.28 for them....

FWIW, next time you have XFS issues, please make it clear in the
subject line and cc xfs@oss.sgi.com.

Cheers,

Dave.

unfortunately, i can't wait for this, and don't want to step back in the 
versions, this is a productive box. :-(
This time i forced to use another FS, but nex time i will check again with 
xfs.
