[Bug 1115753] Re: Umount of Multiple LVM Snapshots Causes 'soft lockup CPU#0 stuck for'

 

Craig, still reproducible with the new BIOS?

As well, since it appears you updated from Oneiric, was this
reproducible in it?

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily kernel folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12-rc1

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  Umount of Multiple LVM Snapshots Causes  'soft lockup CPU#0 stuck for'

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Simultaneous umount of multiple lvm snapshots causes system to hang /
  freeze / deadlock.  Window manager freezes.  If umount is executed in
  a non window-manager tty,  messages containing "BUG", "blocked for
  more than xx seconds", and a list of tasks associated with each of the
  8 cpu cores will scroll up at regular intervals.  The tasks assigned
  to each cpu core are unchanging over time, appearing to be deadlocked.
  No relevant information is left in system logs.  Hard reset / poweroff
  is required.  Problem does not occur 100% of the time.  It is less
  likely to occur if umount is done shortly after mount.  Problem still
  occurs -- but less frequently -- if lazy umount -l is used.  Snapshots
  are read-only, and are mounted read-only.
