[Bug 373999] Re: CIFS loops endlessly when remote host is down

2009-06-29 Thread Thierry Carrez
The trace doesn't appear CIFS-specific. As Steve French (CIFS maintainer in Linux kernel) explains in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/211631/comments/84, we are in a corner case that can generate some timeouts, as the system tries the best trade-off in dataloss/timeout/recover

I tried it one last time, this time pulling out the network cable on the local end, and a trace log showed up. Note that the kernel is tainted with the nvidia binary, however. ** Attachment added: "dmesg3" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28540408/dmesg3 -- CIFS loops endlessly when remote host

I've tried it again, although this time by pulling out the remote network cable instead of calling "shutdown -h -P now". CIFS takes a lot longer to realize that the remote host is unreachable, and the system does become a little slower, but not to the same degree as the original. ** Attachment add

I've managed to semi-reproduce it again, although this time against a Samba server. I mounted it using "sudo mount -t cifs '\\192.168.1.130\Public' /mnt/temp" , and then while doing "cat /dev/zero >> /mnt/temp/temp" in another terminal, I called "shutdown -h -P now" through SSH on the Samba server.
