I've heard of an issue involving rsync, but having now tried various different rsync commands, I've not been able to reproduce anything that fails. I'll try to reproduce it after the reboot, which I have to do it by night, but I'm not sure I'll make something of it, cause the error is spontaneous, while the rsync is ran each day. > Call Trace: > [<ffffffffa008e4ea>] 0xffffffffa008e4ea > [<ffffffff8025ecee>] 0xffffffff8025ecee > [<ffffffffa0091307>] 0xffffffffa0091307 > [<ffffffffa008f640>] 0xffffffffa008f640 > [<ffffffffa000fc18>] 0xffffffffa000fc18 > [<ffffffffa000bfe8>] 0xffffffffa000bfe8 > [<ffffffff8022605c>] 0xffffffff8022605c > [<ffffffffa008f060>] 0xffffffffa008f060 > [<ffffffffa008e5cb>] 0xffffffffa008e5cb > [<ffffffffa00912f3>] 0xffffffffa00912f3 > [<ffffffffa0077a9b>] 0xffffffffa0077a9b > [<ffffffffa0076a03>] 0xffffffffa0076a03 > [<ffffffffa00771f7>] 0xffffffffa00771f7 > [<ffffffff8023b43e>] 0xffffffff8023b43e > [<ffffffff8023b571>] 0xffffffff8023b571 > [<ffffffff8023eee5>] 0xffffffff8023eee5 > [<ffffffff8023eee5>] 0xffffffff8023eee5 > [<ffffffff8023b4d8>] 0xffffffff8023b4d8 > [<ffffffff8023e794>] 0xffffffff8023e794 > [<ffffffff802035e9>] 0xffffffff802035e9 > [<ffffffff8023e72b>] 0xffffffff8023e72b > [<ffffffff802035df>] 0xffffffff802035df > This set of numbers is pretty useless without being translated into symbols. On the other hand the assertion which you've hit is GFS2 complaining that its requested that the pages relating to an inode to be invalidated, but there are some that have not been removed after that invalidation. So in this particular case it doesn't matter, Here are you saying that it could be an inconsistency in the FS?
