This is excellent. Thanks! I'll take a deep look at that ocmmit to see what might be going on. > So somehow this only effects ext4 on DM (it's THE common factor in all reports) and fsck seems incapable of seeing the error (and thus repair it.) What's probably happening is it's only the in-memory copy of the bitmap which is getting corrupted, and because the file system is getting remounted read-only, the corrupted bitmap is not getting written back to disk. (This is the whole point of remount-ro when fs corruptions are detected. :-) Cheers, - Ted -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
