Description Andrig T. Miller 2001-08-01 03:14:27 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010701

Description of problem:
If I shutdown my system, the system hangs while "Unmounting local file
systems".  I narrowed down this problem, by stopping Squid (service squid
stop), and trying to umount /webcache (the mount point for my reiserfs file
sytem that Squid is using).  The umount command simply hangs, and cannot be
killed.  I believe this problem was introduced with an update to the mount
package, because this was not happening with my initial implementation of
reiserfs on RedHat 7.1.  The umount -V command reports the following
version information:

umount: mount-2.11b

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.mount any reiserfs file system
2.umount any reiserfs file system
3.
	

Actual Results:  umount hangs, and cannot be killed.

Expected Results:  umount should finish, and the file system should no
longer be mounted.

Additional info:

I believe this issue was introduced with a patch to mount.  The umount -V
command reports the following version information:

umount: mount-2.11b

Did you upgrade your kernel?  If so this is probably a duplicate of bug 45628.

Comment 2 Andrig T. Miller 2001-08-02 23:51:54 UTC
I looked at bug 45628, and it does appear to be the same problem, because I did
upgrade to the 2.4.3-12 kernel.

Comment 3 Andrig T. Miller 2002-01-25 03:43:24 UTC
This problem has been fixed, and I have since upgraded my system to RedHat 7.2,
where the problem is also no longer occuring.  You can close this bug.
