Hi,

This command is hanging on 2.6.39-rc3, where /mnt/ceph is
a ceph file system:
   dd conv=fdatasync if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/ceph/zero.`hostname -s` bs=4k count=4k

It works on 2.6.38.  As of commit e38f5b745075 in Linus'
tree it still doesn't work.

I bisected this to:

250df6ed274d767da844a5d9f05720b804240197 is the first bad commit
commit 250df6ed274d767da844a5d9f05720b804240197
Author: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>
Date:   Tue Mar 22 22:23:36 2011 +1100

     fs: protect inode->i_state with inode->i_lock

In the early stages of the bisection, bad commits would show this
in dmesg:

[  137.004963] libceph: loaded (mon/osd proto 15/24, osdmap 5/6 5/6)
[  137.056431] ceph: loaded (mds proto 32)
[  137.063213] libceph: client4283 fsid 950217ad-499e-eab1-03f7-f6d245f42751
[  137.063826] libceph: mon0 172.17.40.34:6789 session established
[  219.658002] INFO: rcu_sched_state detected stall on CPU 0 (t=60000 jiffies)

For the last couple of bad commits during the bisection, the
client box would just hang and I'd have to power-cycle it.

When I reboot/remount after a hang, the file I was trying
to write is there, with size and date both zero:

# ls -l --time-style=+%s /mnt/ceph/zero.an1024
-rw-r--r-- 1 jaschut jaschut 0 0 /mnt/ceph/zero.an1024

strace suggests it's the write that hangs:

close(3)                                = 0
close(0)                                = 0
open("/dev/zero", O_RDONLY)             = 0
lseek(0, 0, SEEK_CUR)                   = 0

write(1, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 4096

Let me know if I can do anything else to help sort this out.
