Confirmed here with 2.6.15-rc1 an IDE disk. Kernel is UP with
CONFIG_PREEMPT and 8KB stack. The following debug options are enabled:

CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y
CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE=y
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y
CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW=y

should I try and enable something else to gather more informations?


The first time the system hung during shutdown, with kernel stuck in
pdflush (probably waked up by sync):

The second time happened while I was doing a "rm -rf" of a kernel tree:

 rm            D E4913E38     0  2831   2825                     (NOTLB)

At the time of the rm -rf the partition was somewhat full:

root@dreamland:~# df /usr
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda8             33996740  33549488    447252  99% /usr
root@dreamland:~# df -i /usr
Filesystem            Inodes   IUsed   IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/hda8            1997584  148695 1848889    8% /usr

The first time there was a lot more of free space though (a couple of
GB).

Here it happens with an IDE disk, connected to VT8233A southbridge.
