Hello, i picked all bcache patches from for-next to my 4.4 kernel to test the new controller. After doing so i see random kernel panics with the following trace: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000019 IP: [<ffffffffc04ef62e>] closure_sub+0xe/0xc0 [bcache] PGD 0 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: netconsole xt_multiport ipt_REJECT nf_reject_ipv4 xt_set iptable_filter ip_tables x_tables ip_set_hash_net ip_set nfnetlink bonding ipmi_devintf sb_edac edac_core x86_pkg_temp_thermal mgag200 kvm_intel ttm drm_kms_helper kvm irqbypass drm fb_sys_fops syscopyarea crc32_pclmul sysfillrect sysimgblt ghash_clmulni_intel wmi ipmi_si ipmi_msghandler shpchp button coretemp 8021q garp fuse btrfs xor raid6_pq dm_mod usb_storage ohci_hcd usbhid bcache sg sd_mod ahci ehci_pci i2c_i801 libahci ehci_hcd isci igb i2c_algo_bit ixgbe usbcore libsas i2c_core mdio usb_common scsi_transport_sas ptp pps_core CPU: 6 PID: 50 Comm: ksoftirqd/6 Not tainted 4.4.92+534-ph #1 Hardware name: Supermicro X9SRE/X9SRE-3F/X9SRi/X9SRi-3F/X9SRE/X9SRE-3F/X9SRi/X9SRi-3F, BIOS 3.0 07/05/2013 task: ffff8802196ccb00 ti: ffff8802196d4000 task.ti: ffff8802196d4000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffffc04ef62e>] [<ffffffffc04ef62e>] closure_sub+0xe/0xc0 [bcache] RSP: 0018:ffff8802196d7c20 EFLAGS: 00010297 RAX: 00000000fdffffff RBX: fffffffffffffff1 RCX: 00000000000f4240 RDX: 0000000000070651 RSI: 0000000002000001 RDI: fffffffffffffff1 RBP: ffff8802196d7c28 R08: 0000000000000007 R09: ffff880219568000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000e00 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000e00 R15: ffff8805eb2dbd60 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff880c7f580000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000019 CR3: 0000000c7ee0b000 CR4: 00000000001406e0Stack: fffffffffffffff1 ffff8802196d7c40 ffffffffc04ef70d ffff880c459ecbc0 ffff8802196d7c58 ffffffffc04f20df ffff880c459eccf0 ffff8802196d7c70 ffffffffc04ef616 ffff880c459eccf0 ffff8802196d7c88 ffffffffc04f16a7 Call Trace: [<ffffffffc04ef70d>] __closure_wake_up+0x2d/0x40 [bcache] [<ffffffffc04f20df>] journal_write_done+0x2f/0xa0 [bcache] [<ffffffffc04ef616>] closure_put+0xb6/0xc0 [bcache] [<ffffffffc04f16a7>] journal_write_endio+0x37/0x40 [bcache] [<ffffffff81397b16>] bio_endio+0x56/0x60 [<ffffffff813a00cb>] blk_update_request+0x8b/0x370 [<ffffffff8150b663>] scsi_end_request+0x33/0x1c0 [<ffffffff8150dddd>] scsi_io_completion+0x18d/0x660 [<ffffffff815046df>] scsi_finish_command+0xcf/0x120 [<ffffffff8150d566>] scsi_softirq_done+0x126/0x150 [<ffffffff813a7f88>] blk_done_softirq+0x78/0x90 [<ffffffff8108a48c>] __do_softirq+0x11c/0x2e0 [<ffffffff8108a678>] run_ksoftirqd+0x28/0x50 [<ffffffff810a6fb9>] smpboot_thread_fn+0x139/0x1a0 [<ffffffff810a3aeb>] kthread+0xeb/0x110 [<ffffffff816dbd0f>] ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70 DWARF2 unwinder stuck at ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70 Leftover inexact backtrace: 2017-10-23 13:35:09 [<ffffffff810a3a00>] ? kthread_park+0x60/0x60 Code: e8 a8 d6 ba c0 84 c0 75 83 0f 0b 48 8b 5f 20 eb af ff d1 e9 74 ff ff ff 0f 0b 0f 1f 00 0f 1f 44 00 00 55 89 f0 f7 d8 48 89 e5 53 <f0> 0f c1 47 28 29 f0 89 c1 81 e1 ff ff 7f 00 a9 00 00 00 55 75 RIP [<ffffffffc04ef62e>] closure_sub+0xe/0xc0 [bcache] RSP <ffff8802196d7c20> CR2: 0000000000000019 ---[ end trace a4cc6c37159f8e49 ]--- Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt Kernel Offset: 0x0 from 0xffffffff81000000 (relocation range: 0xffffffff80000000-0xffffffffbfffffff) Greets, Stefan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bcache" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
