konqueror deadlocks on 2.6.22

2008-01-19 Thread Al Boldi
I was just attacked by some deadlock issue involving sqlite3 and konqueror. While sqlite3 continues to slowly fill a 7M-record db in transaction mode, konqueror hangs for a few minutes, then continues only to hang again and again. Looks like an fs/blockIO issue involving fsync. As a workaround,

[RFC][PATCH] VFS: create /proc//mountinfo

2008-01-19 Thread Miklos Szeredi
Seems, most people would be happier with a new file, instead of extending /proc/mounts. This patch is the first attempt at doing that, as well as fixing the issues found in the previous submission. Thanks, Miklos --- From: Ram Pai <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> /proc/mounts in its current state fail to di
