| |
In 1.3.93, loop (use a file for a filesystem) works better, but still locks up. Before 91, it would lock up in less than a minute. The fix for plug (in ll_rw_blk) (in 1.3.91) improved things, it would run for several minutes before lockup. I made another fix to 1.3.93, and it would stay up for tens of minutes.
I'm not going to submit that patch, because the darned thing is STILL not working reliably!
It seems that the bug/deadlock is still there, and that these "fixes" merely mask it (and make it even harder to find).
