lockdep: inconsistent lock state
From: Christian Kujau
Date: Sat Dec 26 2009 - 16:08:01 EST
Hi,
during tests with bonnie++ on an XFS filesystem, the warning below is
issued. From the message's timestamps, the warning occurs during the
"Create files in sequential order" phase. I've put a few more details and
the config here: http://nerdbynature.de/bits/2.6.33-rc2/xfs_ilock
Something similar has been reported in http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/2/20/269
(for 2.6.29-rc5) and a fix for this false positive made its way into
mainline as ed93ec3907f063268ced18728d0653f6199d100c - so I take it this
is a different issue then?
Thanks,
Christian.
