SL users,
we encountered a hung kernel with SL6, believe it is
likely a real bug with dm code running snapshots.
sata_sil24 -> md raid5 -> dm snapshot -> ext4 jbd -> hung IO
checked whole site sl.org and most documents there, but
found no information on how to report bugs.
- since this is an "old" kernel relative to upstream,
doubtful that linux-kernel cares
- since this is not a "vendor" kernel i.e. paid
rhel6, doubt redhat cares
thus, not sure of the appropriate bug reporting method.
I have tons of debug info... able to capture copious
sysrq-induced dumps from serial console.
Please advise on the appropriate procedure for
reporting these kinds of kernel bugs.
Thanks.
