Additional information - the ~file size this is caused
is somewhere close to 260Mbytesfiles.
If I create a ~260Mbytes file - my program finishes creating
the file - but ~5 seconds later (I timed this by hitting enter
on the console every second after completion of the command
that should have done a fsync of the created file before exiting)...
It hangs...
I did a little playing around with /proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level
(set to 0x7) - and it seems that the kernel/box locks up after
this line:
>> scsi_add_timer: scmd: efca83c0, time: 7500, (c0160660)
>> scsi_delete_timer: scmd: efca83c0, rtn: 1
>> scsi_add_timer: scmd: efca8840, time: 7500, (c0160660)
Further analysis (setting logging level to 65535 (0xFFFF)
Has the following behavior down low) -
>> scsi_add_timer: scmd: efca8960, time: 7500, (c0160660)

Nothing more - it hangs!
This is really a nasty problem!!!!
