[Ocfs2-users] Non-responsive OCFS2 filesystems

[Sunil Mushran]

Check whether it is the same as in 2.6.21. We run continuous tests against
mainline kernels and we've not encountered these problems.

The patch fix atop 2.6.21 is as follows:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mfasheh/ocfs2/backports/2.6.21/

The break up of the above can be viewed here:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mfasheh/ocfs2.git;a=shortlog;h=2.6.21_fixes

Keep in mind, none of the patch fixes addresses the problem you encountered.
I would make sure that the code is what it is supposed to be.
