Package: linux-image-2.6.17-2-parisc Version: 2.6.17-6 I found about 4 different ways to deadlock the current implementation of rwlocks on parisc. I've committed a patch to our git tree which should improve the situation, although it's obviously not had a lot of testing yet, and is subject to being improved further.
