This looks the same as following issue reported in mailing list:
Thank you for reporting details.
Yes, it appears to be the same issue. Apparently the commit was identified, so I hope it gets fixed soon.
Thanks!
A workaround could be disable CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK in your kernel config, rebuild kernel and reboot.
Thank you. I will try this when I have time and report back.
This issue was fixed by commit 8301c719a2bd ("nilfs2: fix null pointer dereference at nilfs_segctor_do_construct()") which is merged to kernel 5.8-rc1. It was back ported to the following stable kernels:
v5.7.3 (linux-5.7.y) v5.6.19 (linux-5.6.y) v5.4.47 (linux-5.4.y)
For former stable kernels that back-ported the causal commit c3aab9a0bd91 ("mm/filemap.c: don't initiate writeback if mapping has no dirty pages"), back porting the above commit may resolve the issue.
Thank you very much. I'm not currently using nilfs, but I'll get back to it.
Hi!
I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right place, but the crashes seem to be related with nilfs driver. I personally use Manjaro Linux. Some reports can be seen on the following posts:
(https://forum.manjaro.org/t/stable-update-2019-11-14-kernels-plasma-kde-apps-kde-frameworks-mesa-nvidia/111239/134?u=mbb)
(https://forum.manjaro.org/t/kernel-bug-related-to-nilfs/112783?u=mbb)
To sumarize:
pti
ormitigations
with a kernel parameter the crash doesn't occur upon boot, but it eventually happens later, while using the nilfs partition (which I use for data);scsi_mod.use_blk_mq=1
but removing it doesn't change anything.Thank you very much for reading this and for your work on the nilfs filesystem. I really like it. Please tell me if I should report the issue on the kernel bugtracker instead.
