I can't make out what is causing this hang every now an then: INFO: task snmpd:398 blocked for more than 120 seconds. "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. snmpd D 0fad1760 0 398 1 0x00000000 Call Trace: [c7b5fc70] [c7a49a80] 0xc7a49a80 (unreliable) [c7b5fd30] [c0008608] __switch_to+0x4c/0x6c [c7b5fd40] [c028fed4] schedule+0x184/0x310 [c7b5fd70] [c0290e5c] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0xa4/0x150 [c7b5fdb0] [c0290c50] mutex_lock+0x44/0x48 [c7b5fdc0] [c01eb5b0] rtnl_lock+0x18/0x28 [c7b5fdd0] [c01df6c4] dev_ioctl+0x2b4/0x764 [c7b5fe60] [c01cafc8] sock_ioctl+0x18c/0x2a0 [c7b5fe80] [c009a16c] vfs_ioctl+0xcc/0xe0 [c7b5fea0] [c009a998] do_vfs_ioctl+0xc4/0x79c [c7b5ff10] [c009b0b0] sys_ioctl+0x40/0x74 [c7b5ff40] [c00117c4] ret_from_syscall+0x0/0x38
The dev_ioctl is in SIOCGIFCONF: int dev_ioctl(struct net *net, unsigned int cmd, void __user *arg) { struct ifreq ifr; int ret; char *colon; /* One special case: SIOCGIFCONF takes ifconf argument and requires shared lock, because it sleeps writing to user space. */ if (cmd == SIOCGIFCONF) { rtnl_lock(); ret = dev_ifconf(net, (char __user *) arg); rtnl_unlock(); return ret; } Any ideas?
