Subject: Quota in 2.6.0-test2 broken ...
Date: Tue, 29 Jul 2003 18:04:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030729160458.GA31881@www.13thfloor.at> (raw)


Hi Honza!

Quota is definitely broken in 2.6.0-test2 because the
code tries to acquire dqio_sem in *_read_file_info, while
already holding the same sem in vfs_quota_on, which
simply deadlocks ...

removing the down(dqio_sem) in vfs_quota_on at least
allows quota to be enabled 8-) but still deadlocks on 
quota transfers? ... :(

it seems this stuff hasn't been tested since the last
update? doesn't anybody use quota anymore?

best,
Herbert
