Description
RuntimeError: Timed out after 600 seconds waiting for 160 (currently 252)

After much head scratching and log examination, this appears to be a kernel regression (assuming our behaviour was valid to begin with).
v3.17 works
v3.18-rc6 does not work
Investigation continues... recent changes to d_invalidate look interesting.

yes, I think it caused by the d_invalidate change. In 3.18-rc kernel, d_invalidate() unhash dentry regardless if the dentry is still busy. the change makes our tick that invalidates kernel cache not work. but I don't think it's a kernel regression.

For 3.18+ kernel, I think we can iterate the all dir inodes and invalidate dentry one by one.

Can we get a giant backport for this, please?
Updated by Zheng Yan over 9 years ago
The fix is buggy, we shouldn't backport it. we should use patches for #10277 instead

Hum, I was thinking that we could backport the simple fix since most users will be on older kernels where it behaves properly anyway. But I suppose Giant is new enough that's not really a safe bet.
