Title:
  task blocked for more than 120 seconds on server kernel

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Hi,

  this is about a ubuntu server version.
  The server consists mainly of fast HDDs and 2 external attached LTO-3 tape drives in a changer.
  It's purpose is to sync with other servers and then write ewverything onto both tape drives in parallel overnight.

  The following is our main problem:
  [ 1081.590063] INFO: task mbuffer1:2589 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

  After the 5th 120s delay the following aborts the backup:

  This is with the SAS-LSI driver manually updated to version:
  # cat /sys/module/mptbase/version 
  4.24.00.00

  because I get lost connections to SATA drives with the driver supplied
  with the kernel (was with 2.6.32-23).

  This is a really serious bug for this server! It prevents it from doing backups.
  Please also read Bug 494476
