Description Stephan Binner 2006-02-02 09:57:12 UTC 
My work machine running STABLE locks up after at maximum some hours. Will attach the logfile of the serial console.

Comment 2 Chris L Mason 2006-02-02 19:51:31 UTC 
Well, something has indeed gone horribly wrong.  Which kernel are you running?
Comment 3 Stephan Binner 2006-02-03 09:40:46 UTC 
That was 2.6.16-rc1-git3-4-smp. After that I upgraded and tonight 2.6.16-rc1-git3-7-smp #1 SMP Mon Jan 30 21:52:12 UTC 2006 locked up.
Comment 4 Stephan Binner 2006-02-17 12:30:47 UTC 
Happened again with 2.6.16-rc3-git3-2-smp , seems a ReiserFS corruption triggers it? Will attach talky serial console logfile.
Comment 6 Chris L Mason 2006-02-17 19:06:56 UTC 
Definitely seeing disk corruption in there.  Does this machine run stable on any older kernels?
Comment 7 Chris L Mason 2006-02-17 19:41:33 UTC 
Ok, I've been assuming this was a clean install.  If you are not reinstalling between sessions, have you run reiserfsck?
Comment 8 Stephan Binner 2006-02-17 19:51:34 UTC 
I ran reiserfsck today and there was a structural bug detected which required to rebuild the whole tree to fix it. Still, should the whole kernel lockup because of it (assuming there is a relation)?
Comment 9 Chris L Mason 2006-02-17 20:00:09 UTC 
That depends on what caused the corruption.  The simple reiserfs corruption you saw should not lock the kernel.  But the corruption should not have happened without some memory corruption problem.

So, I'd like you to beat up on the system as much as you can and try to trigger it again.

Waiting for feedback as per comment #9. Otherwise, we'll assume we can close this bug.

No feedback, closing
