Bug#418653: failed XFS mount was impossible to abort



Package: linux-image-2.6.17-2-k7
Version: 2.6.17-9
Severity: serious

After doing an LVM snapshot of my /home, I tried to mount it with the
nouuid option, as it is XFS. The mount process stopped in an
uninterruptable sleep for a long time (many minutes). It was impossible
to kill it, even with the KILL signal, and using umount, even with the
-f or -l option, just returned the error message "not mounted".

The dmesg output last 3 lines were:

Filesystem "dm-22": Disabling barriers, not supported by the underlying device
XFS mounting filesystem dm-22
Starting XFS recovery on filesystem: dm-22 (logdev: internal)

Neither halt, nor reboot nor shutdown had any effect, I had to use the
Magic Keys to reboot. After a reboot, the operation of mounting the
snapshot succeeded as usual.
