Summary: firefox downloads hang on ext4; fine on ext3
Product: File System
Version: 2.5
KernelVersion: 2.6.27.10
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: ext4
AssignedTo: fs_ext4@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
ReportedBy: avery@shadypixel.com
Distribution:
Debian testing/unstable
Software Environment:
Kernel is actually from http://wiki.debian.org/DebianKernel. Version is
2.6.27-1~experimental.1~snapshot.12516, which appears to be based on 2.6.27.10.
Problem Description:
I mentioned this in my last bug report
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12424), but it seems that was
something unrelated (I think). My firefox downloads have been hanging off and
on since reformatting ext3->ext4. I've finally found a way to reproduce this
100% of the time.
Steps:
1.) download large file to folder on ext4 fs
2.) close all firefox windows except the download manager before download
completes
3.) download will hang at nearly 100%
This happens every single time. If I keep another firefox window open (beside
the downloads mini-window), the download always completes successfully. If I do
the same steps except save the file to an ext3 fs, it always works.
