> I've been using a kernel which is between 2.6.37-rc2 and -rc3 with a LUKS / dm-crypt / LVM / ext4 setup for my primary file systems, and I haven't observed any corruption for the last two weeks or so. It's on my todo list to upgrade to top of Linus's tree, but perhaps this is a useful data point. The reported corruptions are with a .37 forward port someone did of my parallel kcryptd patch. The 2.6.36 (and earlier) versions are rock solid with many users. The classic dmcrypt is single threaded and very slow. > As another thought, what version of GCC are people using who are having difficulty? Could this perhaps be a compiler-related issue? A compiler problem seems very unlikely here. What may be an useful experiment would be to test 2.6.37-rc + ext4 over device mapper, but not dmcrypt. If that fails too then it's likely some generic device mapper problem. -Andi -- ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- Speaking for myself only. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
