Re: XFS hangs

Hi,

 

There seems to be a problem in posting - I already apologized and provided complete details. I guess this was the first time, i missed on providing the test case.

 

Please refer my earlier post on the same issue:

 

 

Extremely sorry for inconvenience, will take care about posting complete details in future.
 
Test Case :
cp Complex directory structure(large no of files and directories) to my XFS formatted partition:
cp -ar /LibExe /usb/sda2
Unplug the USB while the COPY is in progress.
 
Storage: USB Flash, USB HDD (Both)
 
Kernel: 2.6.34
Target: MIPS
LOGS:

Should I update this section?

http://xfs.org/index.php/XFS_FAQ#Q:_What_information_should_I_include_when_reporting_a_problem.3F

We should probably just send that link to people so you don't have to
write long texts all the time.

Maybe above section should be updated to:

Things to include are what version of XFS you are using and version of
the kernel. If you have problems with userland packages please report
the version of the package you are using.

If the problem relates to a particular filesystem, the output from the
xfs_info(8) command and any mount(8) options in use will also be useful
to the developers.

If you experience an oops, please run it through ksymoops so that it can
be interpreted. Also describe what you were doing, if you can repeat it,
and describe you kernel, storage, test case, if there was a hardware
problem before, etc.

If you have a filesystem that cannot be repaired, make sure you have
xfsprogs 3.1.x or later and run xfs_metadump(8) to capture the metadata
(which obfuscates filenames and attributes to protect your privacy) and
make the dump available for someone to analyse.
