Looks like something didnt close properly when you were executing pvfs2-mkdir.

Are you doing anything custom to the fs?


from `man ps`

       Processes marked <defunct> are dead processes (so-called "zombies")
       that remain because their parent has not destroyed them properly. These
       processes will be destroyed by init(8) if the parent process exits.
