The same cluster is actively receiving writes from older kernels (5.13), and it was initially reported at https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/73408, where a user reports that 5.15 kernels also work. > > > > /proc/version: Linux version 5.16.2-arch1-1 (linux@archlinux) (gcc (GCC) 11.1.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.36.1) #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu, 20 Jan 2022 16:18:29 +0000 > > distro / arch: Arch Linux / x86_64 > > SELinux is not enabled > > ceph cluster version: 16.2.7 (dd0603118f56ab514f133c8d2e3adfc983942503) > > > > relevant dmesg output: > > [ 30.947129] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 > > [ 30.947206] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode > > [ 30.947258] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page > > [ 30.947310] PGD 0 P4D 0 > > [ 30.947342] Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI > > [ 30.947388] CPU: 5 PID: 778 Comm: touch Not tainted 5.16.2-arch1-1 #1 86fbf2c313cc37a553d65deb81d98e9dcc2a3659 > > [ 30.947486] Hardware name: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.

Stephen, could you test this patch and let us know if it fixes it? -------------------8<-------------------- [PATCH] ceph: when no LSM is configured, don't set security xattr If the xattr name pointer is not populated after the call to security_dentry_init_security(), then we should assume that no LSM is configured and that no xattr needs to be set for it. Also, remove a now-defunct comment.
