           Summary: freeze on XFS recovery on sparc64 with linux kernel
                    2.4.26
           Product: Linux XFS
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Medium
         Component: XFS kernel code
        AssignedTo: xfs-master@oss.sgi.com
        ReportedBy: nboullis@debian.org


Hi,

On sparc64, I tried several versions of the XFS patch for 2.4 kernels, up to the
version currently in the 2.4.26 kernel. All of them fail when a recovery is
attempted, first by freezing and sometimes by oopsing. It is so badly broken
that even the openboot hotkey (STOP-A) does not work.

I just rebuilt my kernel and xfs module with DEBUG. And now, at recovery time, I
get an assertion failure:
XFS assertion failed: item->ri_buf[i].i_len % XFS_BLI_CHUNK == 0, file:
xfs_log_recover.c, line: 1955

(I never experienced such a problem on i386.)

Is there something I can do to help track this bug?


Regards,

Nicolas
