|Spot on - so, thats why you're getting a panic anyway, somehow one of
|those inodes with nlink==0 is visible through the directory hierarchy
|and someone is accessing it; someone else takes it away at the same
|time, and boom.
|The real root of the problem though is how did the nlink field get that
|way... this would probably have happened at some point well before your
|panic, so we've got no real clues to go on unfortunately. :(
To be quite honest I don't think I'm really doing anything unusual, unless
suspend and resume are unusual. I did xfs_repair this mount before and it did
happen again afterwards. I'm fairly sure it started after 2.6.15, of course I
could be mistaken. One thing I can say is there's nothing that really
_reproduces_ it afaict. I have had it happen during an emerge, have had it
happening after just comeing back to the computer to use it in the middle of an
x session with nothing else happening.
Simply put I can name most of the normal stuff that runs on this computer.
Apache2, xdm, fvwm2, konqueror, kate (editor), jasspa microemacs, emerge.
That's the most used programs. I have had it happen during high cpu usage and
had it happen alot during no cpu usage.
I don't suppose you have anything to take out the metadata, so you can research
it? reiser4 has a program like this iirc.
My netconsole isn't hooked up correctly atm, so I'm going to reconfigure that,
rebuild a newer git and see if I can get you a newer dump. This one will be
with GCC-4.1, if that'll help you any. If you can think of anything I can do to
help please let me know.
If you want I can also try going back to 2.6.15 run it for a week see what
happens.
Any ideas of where to go from here?
