Offhand I'm not seeing any suspicious issues reported upstream, on linux-ext4@ - does anyone have a complete dmesg for the boot during which the fs went read only? SSDs manifest a wide range of failure modes. It's fairly common for the early failure warning to be transient corruption, either zeros or garbage, when reading a sector. And then eventually the whole drive will either report zeros, garbage, or just vanish from the bus. Whether Btrfs or ext4, you're going to experience grief. But on Btrfs it'll tend to complain much earlier, just because it's also checksumming data, and data is a much larger target for corruption than the file system itself. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
