Subject: XFS strangeness, xfs_db out of memory
Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2004 08:57:26 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200410240857.31893.robin.rosenberg.lists@dewire.com> (raw)
Hi,
I was testing a tiny script on top of xfs_fsr to show fragmentation and the
resultss of defragmentation. As a result of fine tuning the output I ran the
script repeatedly and suddenly got error from find (unknown error 999 if my
memory serves me. It scrolled off the screen).
The logs show this.
Oct 24 08:06:50 xine kernel: hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x21
Oct 24 08:07:00 xine kernel: hda: DMA timeout error
Oct 24 08:07:00 xine kernel: hda: dma timeout error: status=0xd0 { Busy }
Oct 24 08:07:00 xine kernel:
Oct 24 08:07:00 xine kernel: hda: DMA disabled
Oct 24 08:07:00 xine kernel: ide0: reset: success
How bad is that for XFS?... The error isn't permanent it seems.
After that xfs_db -r /dev-with-home -c "frag -v" gives me an out-of-memory
error after a while, consistently.
xfs_db: out of memory
The script essentially does this
xfs_info $dev
xfs_db -r $dev -c "frag -v"
find $mountp
xfs_fsr -v
Program versions
kernel is 2.6.8.1-12mdk (Mandrake 10.1 Community edition)
xfsdump-2.2.21-1mdk
xfsprogs-2.6.13-1mdk
xfs_repair had lots of comments after this, but went through.
