hiya! see the attached file for the resolved bug() call. my kernel spit out 185 messages like this: Mar 9 17:15:13 srck@trottelkunde attempt to access beyond end of device Mar 9 17:15:13 srck@trottelkunde 16:42: rw=0, want=0, limit=12289725 right before the bug(). this message didn't get parsed by ksymoops Mar 9 17:15:13 srck@trottelkunde Assertion failure in journal_start() at

hiya! i'm currently running 2.4.12-ac1 w/o any further ext3 patches. i've got a dir with some fairly big files (like 15mb/file) in it and while sfv-checking these i got the following errors: Oct 14 21:47:59 srck@trottelkunde attempt to access beyond end of device Oct 14 21:47:59 srck@trottelkunde 16:42: rw=0, want=600889688, limit=12289725 Oct 14 21:47:59 srck@trottelkunde attempt to

Hi, When trying to run a particular program, I reproducibly get a few dozen kernel messages of the form: attempt to access beyond end of device 03:06: rw=0, want=536995844, limit=11680168 attempt to access beyond end of device 03:06: rw=0, want=1342296068, limit=11680168

A brand new system setup with RH 7.3 is still Oopsing after every X hours. The problem started after about 1 week without errors. Sometimes everything is locked, sometimes still messages are written to /var/log/messages. Sometimes other processes keep running (can still ping the machine) I upgraded the kernel to 2.4.18-19.7.x, changed the memory, but still got problems. When I read all sort of

The whole loop=0,1,2 thing was kind of odd and not very self explanatory. I''ve replaced it with a list_for_each_entry on space_info->block_groups. If we have a hint we just jump into the loop with the block group and start looking for space. If we don''t find anything we start at the beginning and start looking. We never come out of the loop with a ref on the block_group

I recently bought 2 different USB flash disks. These are some cheap no-name devices. Their parameters: bytes C/H/S ID 4194304512 509/255/63 Vendor: Generic Model: USB Flash Drive Rev: 1.00 ANSI SCSI revision: 02 4288676352 1023/132/62 Vendor: USB Model: USB 2.0 Rev: 1.00 ANSI SCSI revision: 02 When I put a FAT32 filesystem on them,

I noticed a huge problem with the free space cache that was presenting as an early ENOSPC. Turns out when writing the free space cache out I forgot to take into account pinned extents and more importantly clusters. This would result in us leaking free space everytime we unmounted the filesystem and remounted it. I fix this by making sure to check and see if the current block group has a cluster

Hello, So there is an odd case where we can possibly return -ENOSPC when there is in fact space to be had. I think I finally have a hold on what the problem is, it only happens with Metadata writes, and happens _very_ infrequently. What has to happen is we have to allocate have allocated out of the first logical byte on the disk, which would set last_alloc to first_logical_byte(root, 0), so

Yan Zheng hit a problem where we tried to remove some free space but failed because we couldn''t find the free space entry. This is because the free space was held within a bitmap that had a starting offset well before the actual offset of the free space, and there were free space extents that were in the same range as that offset, so tree_search_offset returned with NULL because we

The biggest one is a fix for fstrim, and there''s a fix for on-disk free space cache. Others are small fixes and cleanups. The last three have been sent weeks ago. The patchset is also available in this repo: git://repo.or.cz/linux-btrfs-devel.git for-chris Note there''s a small confict with Al Viro''s vfs changes. Li Zefan (11): Btrfs: add pinned extents to

If we have particularly full nodes, we could call btrfs_node_blockptr up to 32 times, which is 32 pairs of kmap/kunmap, which _sucks_. So go ahead and map the extent buffer while we look for readahead targets.

When adding orphans to an inode''s root, we start a transaction for that root that when ended in several places such as for example extent-tree.c:btrfs_remove_block_group(), inode.c:btrfs_unlink() and inode.c:btrfs_evict_node(), doesn''t result in a commit, that is, inode.c:btrfs_orphan_commit_root() doesn''t get called (via transaction.c:commit_fs_roots()).

Hi, I have a server configured as follows: a standard 2.4.18 kernel, IDE discs, 1Gb RAM (not all used), load avg around 1-2. a large partition, formatted reiserfs within large partition are 80 300Mb loopback file systems, formatted ext3. I got the following assertion yesterday which forced a lot of processes into D state. I'm not sure how easy it is to reproduce this problem.
