Olaf, can you please check if my patch for busy inodes from -mm tree
helps you?
I cant reprpoduce it at will, thats the thing. It likely happens with NFS
mounts. [email protected] did some work recently. But I remember even with
these changes (for a 2.6.13), the busy inodes did not disappear.
Merging your patch into our cvs will give it more testing, I will do
that tomorrow if noone disagrees.
The patch is certainly safe and stable. But it's so huge and complex and
ugly that I was hoping that a better fix would turn up. The bug itself
takes quite some ingenuity to hit.
We have another idea how to reimplement it via refcounters instead of
lists. But I'm not sure when this will happen, due to lack of time :(
