Hello, I have just tried to re-use fscache on Gentoo Linux again after a multi-year hiatus. Unfortunately there seems to be a major bug introduced in the 5.6 kernel. After only a few minutes, my system hangs completely and I have to power cycle it with a nfs mount configured with the "fsc" option: [ 1207.798737] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 1207.798738] kernel BUG at fs/nfs/fscache.c:471!
