XFS crashes with shrink_slab: xfs_reclaim_inode_shrink+0x0/0x10d negative objects to delete nr

[Stefan Priebe - Profihost AG]

Hi,

please HELP ME! We're seeing a really bad behaviour on one of our 
machines running vanilla 2.6.32.40 kernel.

It freezes from time to time or processes starts to hang. At the same 
time the following message appears in the kernel log:

shrink_slab: xfs_reclaim_inode_shrink+0x0/0x10d negative objects to 
delete nr=-274207938304

shrink_slab: xfs_reclaim_inode_shrink+0x0/0x10d negative objects to 
delete nr=-549059303168

shrink_slab: xfs_reclaim_inode_shrink+0x0/0x10d negative objects to 
delete nr=-549500554116

shrink_slab: xfs_reclaim_inode_shrink+0x0/0x10d negative objects to 
delete nr=-549360922112

shrink_slab: xfs_reclaim_inode_shrink+0x0/0x10d negative objects to 
delete nr=-549407219078

shrink_slab: xfs_reclaim_inode_shrink+0x0/0x10d negative objects to 
delete nr=-549480231300

Any ideas? An xfs_repair says everything is fine.
