That's all it takes. I actually run the remount until it succeeds, obviously with fsstress going in the background there is a pretty narrow window where it needs to sneak in with a write between the start of the sync_filesystem and before the remount check for writers (-EBUSY). > Can you also trigger it on nandsim or mtdram? Haven't tried, but I can. I just don't really have that great of a development environment for doing this on a desktop machine. > I did a quick test on my testbed using mtdram and was unable to trigger it. > But I fear my box is too fast. I think there is definitely a speed component of my 416 MHz PXA 270 that makes this pretty easy to hit. What if you did something like (changing the ubiattach and mount lines obviously)? I'll see if I can do this in a qemu, but it might take me a while to get that setup. - Andy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
