Repeatedly triggered trying an rm -rf of a subversion tree. Intel driver. I guess I'll subscribe and await developments.
A workaround for me was to do following: find ~/svn/trunk -type f | while read f;do rm -f "$f";sleep .1;done find ~/svn/trunk -depth -type d | while read d;do rmdir "$d";sleep .1;done There were no lockups after that. Unfortunately, not a terribly efficient way to erase a large tree, one file every 100 milliseconds took a quarter of an hour for the 10,000 or so files in question. Perhaps I could have skipped the sleep or shrunk it to 10 milliseconds. Will try that the next time I need to do this. Until a patch is released, I suppose I can make a wrapper script for safely doing rm ;) -- Soft lockups (freezes) when deleting files from ext4 partitions on 2.6.28 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330824 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
