Hi, Michael I have met ext4 error when using vhost_scsi on arm64 platform, and suspect it is vhost_scsi issue. Ext4 error when testing virtio_scsi & vhost_scsi No issue: 1. virtio_scsi, ext4 2. vhost_scsi & virtio_scsi, ext2 3. Instead of vhost, also tried loopback and no problem. Using loopback, host can use the new block device, while vhost is used by guest (qemu). http://www.linux-iscsi.org/wiki/Tcm_loop Test directly in host, not find ext4 error. Have issue: 1. vhost_scsi & virtio_scsi, ext4 a. iblock b, fileio, file located in /tmp (ram), no device based. 2, Have tried 4.7-r2 and 4.5-rc1 on D02 board, both have issue. Since I need kvm specific patch for D02, so it may not freely to switch to older version. 3. Also test with ext4, disabling journal mkfs.ext4 -O ^has_journal /dev/sda Do you have any suggestion?

And then run e2fsck on the problematic filesystem and send the output here? Honza -- Jan Kara <jack at suse.com> SUSE Labs, CR
