Description Uriah Welcome 2002-03-30 09:18:21 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020324

Description of problem:
On a cvs mirror system the /tmp filesystem caused a oops in the ext3 code.  The
filesytem was mounted on a DAC1164P RAID controller using hardware RAID 5.  The
kernel is the Redhat 2.4.9-31smp kernel.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. make a 2GB CVS tree
2. make /tmp a ext3 filesystem
3. Because CVS uses /tmp for every checkout it thrashes the filesytem pretty
hard.  Hit it hard enough and it'll oops.
	

Actual Results:  the kernel oops causing everything trying to interact w/ the
/tmp filesystem to hang.  reboot failed.  had to sysrq.

Additional info:

here's the messages output from the oops..
