Description of problem: While testing the fix for 164630, we were able to get around that race condition, however that made it possible now to see a deadlock which could occur when running I/O to a mirror. This was because two processes are both waiting on the same spinlock. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [root@link-02 ~]# lvcreate --version LVM version: 2.01.13 (2005-07-13) Library version: 1.01.03 (2005-06-13) Driver version: 4.4.0 *plus patches to fix 164630* How reproducible: everytime
This bug cropped up as an artifact of my fix for bug 164630, so it does _not_ currently exist in the kernel
