[BUG] BLKZEROOUT on dm-crypt container cause OOM / kernel panic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

When I do the following:

cryptsetup open /dev/sdX[Y] rand --type plain --key-file /dev/random;
blkdiscard -z /dev/mapper/rand

Some OOM killings and a kernel panic occur. Here is a screenshot:

Similar issue is NOT found in doing `cat /dev/zero > /dev/mapper/rand`, or `blkdiscard -z /dev/sdX[Y]` (without opening a dm-crypt on it), on the same hardware and configuration.

Note that `blkdiscard -z` does not trigger the BLKDISCARD ioctl but the BLKZEROOUT ioctl. And the devices I have been testing on are USB devices that does NOT support WRITE SAME or UNMAP.

Regards,
Tom Yan
