And here's one that is well and truly wedged:
root@omega:~# cat /proc/31430/stack
[<ffffffff811669b7>] sync_inodes_sb+0x87/0xb0
[<ffffffff8116b292>] __sync_filesystem+0x82/0x90
[<ffffffff8116b379>] sync_filesystems+0xd9/0x130
[<ffffffff8116b431>] sys_sync+0x21/0x40
[<ffffffff810121b2>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
[<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff
In that case, even kill -SEGV'ing upstart won't stop it. I got that
with only a single dpkg run (i.e. no concurrency), after switching the
container's rootfs from ext4 to ext3, and forcing dpkg[0] to be upgraded
before anything else. Sigh...
I'm THIS CLOSE to giving up and wrapping apt-get in libeatmydata.
[0] I did this because I noticed that lucid's dpkg still suffers from
http://bugs.debian.org/578635
http://bugs.debian.org/605009
https://launchpad.net/bugs/570805
But lucid-updates & lucid-security both contain a version that
contains CLAIMS to address the first of those.
