PID WCHAN 2531 down
Great :-( Now the interesting thing would be to know *which* semaphore this is waiting on ...
I'd really like to see a kernel stack backtrace on this. However, there doesn't appear to be an easy way to do so ...
I was pretty sure this was going to be a fun one...
Hmm. Could you try getting a Wine trace (especially the server/ client interaction)?
ftp://wine.codeweavers.com/pub/other/outlook-server.out.gz (about 160K).
Is this from the same run as above? I.e. is the process with pid 2531 part of this trace?
Yes.
B.t.w. the trace appears to show that you pressed ^C to terminate the process. Does the symptom (processes in state D) show *before* you press ^C or only afterwards?
I'm nearly certain that I see the process show up as run state 'D' prior to pressing ^C, but I may be wrong. I tend to notice this problem, of course, only after pressing ^C and trying to do a killall. I'll poke around a bit more (sorry for not reproducing this more quickly; since it tends to cost me a reboot and a lengthy fsck to repair, I'm a little slow to iterate the test cycles <g>).
