XFS is just waiting for I/O to complete - xfs_bwrite is a very simple funtion that synchronously submits I/O, and xfs_buf_iowait is called to wait for the completion. This is a typical symptom for a broken I/O subsystem. What kind of setup do you use? Especially hardware RAID controllers tends to produce these kinds of issues. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
