The backtrace in your attachment looks like a known bug of 2.6.37 which have already been fixed in 2.6.38. I have no idea why latest btrfs still hang in your environment if there's no debug info...

I tried latest btrfs from git (last commit Mon Feb 14 00:45:29 2011 +0000) but it hang so bad that I couldn't get the output from sysrq+t to hit the disk. So the output is from vanilla 2.6.37 // Maria > -----Original Message----- > From: Johannes Hirte [mailto:johannes.hi...@fem.tu-ilmenau.de] > Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2011 7:35 AM > To: Zhong, Xin > Cc: Maria Wikström; linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org > Subject: Re: [PATCH v2]Btrfs: pwrite blocked when writing from the > mmaped buffer of the same page > > On Friday 28 January 2011 04:53:24 Zhong, Xin wrote: > > Could you describe the steps to recreate it? > > It will be a great help for me to look further.
