SubjectRe: Problem with buffers in pre-patch-2.3.11-1.
this behavior used to be caused by a race in fs/buffer.c, but i thought it
had been fixed in 2.3.9/10 when the buffer cache was threaded. what were
you doing on the machine during this time? i haven't seen the problem on
the most recent development kernels.
