Hi Andrew,
Due to other tasks, only now was I able to repeat the tests and capture the

<0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
------------------------------------
Unfortunately the system Oopsed in the middle of dumping the tasks, but from
what I can see I'm tempted to think that this might be related to the MD
code. md2_raid1 is blocked on D state and, although not shown on the dump, I
know from ps command that md0_raid1 (the swap partition) was also on D state
(along with the stress processes which are responsible for hogging memory,
and top and df). There were about 200MB swapped out, but the swap partition
size is 1GB.
I repeated the test to try to get more output from alt-sysreq-T, but it
oopsed again with even less output.
By the way, I have also tested 2.6.11.6 and I get stuck processes in the
same way. With 2.6.9 I get a hard lockup with no working alt-sysrq, after
about 30 to 60mins of stress.
This is with preempt enabled (as well as BKL preempt). I want to test also
without preempt and also without using MD Raid1, but I'll have to reach the
machine and hit the power button, so not possible until tomorrow :-(
The original original message in this thread containing the details of the
setup and a .config is at:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=111266784320156&w=2
I am happy to test any patches and also wonder if enabling any of the
options in the kernel debugging section could help in trying to find where
the deadlock is.
Thanks
Claudio
