Thomas, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. 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-v3.13-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:
  "task blocked for more than 120 seconds" freezes system in Lucid: xfs

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I get "INFO: task xfsdatad/0:3344 blocked for more than 120 seconds." with  subsequent freeze when doing disk I/O on a single or two xfs partitions. 
  This is yet another variant of bug #494476, where emphasis is on ext4 and possible other processes causing the bug to appear. Reading this and bug #276476, my impression is that it is triggered by disk I/O, no matter the filesystem.

  In on instance, I tried to unrar a large file. After processing 80% of the archive, the process got stuck, the filesystem became unusable ("ls" on other console freezing as well), only reboot helped. Of course, the simple 'shutdown' commend doesn't finish, so that's actually a hard reset.
  The second instance was during a copy of several Gig from one xfs partition to another. Same symptoms.

  Given that only a reset resolves the situation, this might eventually
  lead to damaged file systems and data loss.

  This system has been upgraded to 10.04 via 9.10 from 9.04. The problem
  _did not_ occur under 9.04.
