Theodore Ts'o : I found that there is not 10 but 9 ubuntu SAUCE commits in your branch. commit "18fde579ee7e5895a802e9e04a38c26f4c0ed351" is the one I identified being the bad one earlier. For each 8 others, I built the kernel with the specific SAUCE patch reverted and tested if the bug was reproducible. I did not build the kernel with many commit reverted at the time, each kernel only had one commit reverted. I was able to test 7 reverted commits and none of these following commits fixed the bug :

Unfortunately, I can't revert this commit without reverting commit 18fde579ee7e5895a802e9e04a38c26f4c0ed351 and all attempt to fix FAILED hung did lead me to FTBFS with the following errors : fs/ext4/balloc.c: In function ‘ext4_free_blocks_sb’: fs/ext4/balloc.c:400: erreur: ‘grp’ undeclared (first use in this function) fs/ext4/balloc.c:400: erreur: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once fs/ext4/balloc.c:400: erreur: for each function it appears in.) fs/ext4/balloc.c:540: erreur: ‘EXT4_GROUP_INFO_NEED_INIT_BIT’ undeclared (first use in this function) fs/ext4/balloc.c:541: erreur: ‘blocks_freed’ undeclared (first use in this function) make[2]: *** [fs/ext4/balloc.o] Erreur 1 make[1]: *** [fs/ext4] Erreur 2 make: *** [fs] Erreur 2 I must admit that I don't really know what to do next. If you have any idea, I'm ready to continue testing. -- Soft lockups (freezes) when deleting files from ext4 partitions on 2.6.28 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330824 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
