Unfortunately, that stack trace isn't helpful to debugging the issue.

Are there any eCryptfs-specific messages in the logs?

Can you tell us about your hardware specifications?

is there any processor dependencies for ecryptfs .

because when i am doing unzip a big file that contains (1600 files) ..that time it also hang.

Our device is Arm based .1 Ghz processor and 1 Gb Ram.

its only problem with ecryptfs because when we are doing this all (Like mv , cp , untar ) with normal file system ext4 all are working fine
but some thing is happening when we are doing on ecryptfs mounted file system.

Thanks & Regards,

Copying how?

Using the cp command? Using rsync? Using Nautilus or a graphical file manager?

I just used rsync to copy 4GB of data to my encrypted home directory
in eCryptfs.

Is this a unmodified, vanilla 2.6.35 kernel or is this a distro kernel?
If it is a distro kernel, which distro and which version?

You stated that you're running on an arm device. Keep in mind that
encryption can be demanding of the processor. Your arm device will
likely be very slow at encrypting large amounts of data.

Unfortunately, I don't have an arm device to test with, but I have heard
of others who are successfully using eCryptfs with arm devices.
