Hi,
(2.6.20-rc4, x86_64 1-proc on SMP kernel, 1 GB RAM)
I'm running fsx-linux (akpm ext3-tools version) on an ext3 fs
with data=journal and fs blocksize=2048. I've been trying to
get some kind of kernel messages from it but I can't get any
debug IO done successfully.
It has hung on me 3 times in a row today. I'm using this command:
fsx-linux -l 100M -N 50000 -S 0 fsxtestfile
This is run in a new partition on a IDE drive (/dev/hda7,
using legacy IDE drivers).
Any suggestions for debug output? I can see SysRq output on-screen
(sometimes) but it doesn't make it to my serial console.
Any patches to test? :)
Thanks,
---

More notes:
Fails (hangs) with fs blocksize of 1024, 2048, or 4096.
On data=journal mode hangs. writeback and ordered run fine.
After several runs (hangs), I was able to get some sysrq output
to the serial console.

Can anyone see what fsx-linux is waiting on there?
Thanks,
