Hello All,
Can anyone point me towards someone to help diagnose an issue I have with
a pure64 box panicing when it comes under load? I am running 2.6.8-rc1
with pure64/unstable (as of two days ago or so, but its been the same
for the last few weeks so I don't think userspace is the issue). I have
LVM2 partitions with XFS on top of it. I have MySQL sitting on top again,
and each time I do a mysqldump I get the following, repeatable, panic:

----- END SCREEN SCRAPE ----
Can anyone here grok this, and tell me if I should be talking to
maintainers for LVM, XFS, or someone completely different? Has anyone
else had issues with pure64 and 2.6 kernels when doing large I/O?
If anyone is interested, I can send kernel config and any other relevant
data.
Many thanks,
