I have created and lvm partition with 30GB, and wrote 2.3GB file on it and when i am trying to remove this file with "rm -rf "file_name" then i hit the call trace, as below , but for me machine is in pingable state, rather i can not execute any command inside the ext4 mounted directory and even i can not umount the filesystem :( Here is the call trace i am getting, it seems same as christian has reported and also i have pasted the code where it is getting oops. ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at fs/ext4/mballoc.c:3963! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC Modules linked in: ipv6 autofs4 hidp rfcomm l2cap bluetooth sunrpc dm_mirror dm_log dm_multipath dm_mod sbs sbshc battery ac parport_pc lp parport sr_mod sg ide_cd_mod cdrom serio_raw button rtc_cmos rtc_core rtc_lib tg3 libphy k8temp hwmon i2c_piix4 pcspkr i2c_core usb_storage sata_svw libata mptspi mptscsih scsi_transport_spi mptbase sd_mod scsi_mod ext3 jbd uhci_hcd ohci_hcd ehci_hcd Pid: 8852, comm: rm Not tainted (2.6.27-rc1 #2) EIP: 0060:[<c04c98f0>] EFLAGS: 00010297 CPU: 0 EIP is at ext4_mb_free_blocks+0x3b6/0x51a EAX: e56a5fcc EBX: 0000033f ECX: 00000000 EDX: e56a5e40 ESI: 0000000c EDI: 00000000 EBP: f5fb7de8 ESP: f5fb7d74 DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0033 SS: 0068 Process rm (pid: 8852, ti=f5fb7000 task=f43b3b80 task.ti=f5fb7000) Stack: 0067ee0d 00000000 0067ee01 e56a5e40 df0cc490 0067ee01 00000000 cca06a48 ebfe5df0 d14d2f80 ddbcffe0 00000000 e7ad0000 00000000 0067ee0d c966c860 f35c3c00 c966c860 f35c3800 e7d2b7b8 ebfe5df0 0000000a 0000033f 0000033f Call Trace: [<c04b02df>] ? ext4_free_blocks+0x9b/0x100 [<c04b4c84>] ? ext4_clear_blocks+0xcb/0xd6 [<c04b4d54>] ? ext4_free_data+0xc5/0x117 [<c04b5056>] ? ext4_truncate+0x129/0x3d5 [<c046ef0d>] ? kmem_cache_alloc+0x75/0xad [<c04cf0ff>] ? jbd2_journal_start+0x53/0xb4 [<c04cf0ff>] ? jbd2_journal_start+0x53/0xb4 [<c04cf133>] ? jbd2_journal_start+0x87/0xb4 [<c04bbff7>] ? ext4_journal_start_sb+0x40/0x42 [<c04b7153>] ? ext4_delete_inode+0xab/0x10a [<c04b70a8>] ? ext4_delete_inode+0x0/0x10a [<c04828c5>] ? generic_delete_inode+0x98/0xff [<c048293e>] ? generic_drop_inode+0x12/0x126 [<c0482221>] ? iput+0x4b/0x4e [<c047ad43>] ? do_unlinkat+0xa9/0x112 [<c047c98c>] ? vfs_readdir+0x7e/0x8f [<c047c780>] ? filldir64+0x0/0xcd [<c044a123>] ? audit_syscall_entry+0x101/0x12b [<c047adbc>] ? sys_unlink+0x10/0x12 [<c040383d>] ? sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x21 ======================= Code: 19 c0 85 c0 75 f0 8b 45 98 8d 55 c8 8b 4d f0 ff 75 08 e8 80 c2 ff ff 8b 45 98 8b 55 98 5e 05 8c 01 00 00 39 82 8c 01 00 00 74 04 <0f> 0b eb fe 8b 4d ac 8b 5d e8 8b 81 a0 01 00 00 89 da 8b 48 58 EIP: [<c04c98f0>] ext4_mb_free_blocks+0x3b6/0x51a SS:ESP 0068:f5fb7d74 ---[ end trace d6eba9fe5baf0f00 ]--- ================ Code of fs/ext4/mballoc.c ================================= 3952 /* 3953 * finds all preallocated spaces and return blocks being freed to them 3954 * if preallocated space becomes full (no block is used from the space) 3955 * then the function frees space in buddy 3956 * XXX: at the moment, truncate (which is the only way to free blocks) 3957 * discards all preallocations 3958 */ 3959 static void ext4_mb_return_to_preallocation(struct inode *inode, 3960 struct ext4_buddy *e4b, 3961 sector_t block, int count) 3962 { 3963 BUG_ON(!list_empty(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_prealloc_list)); 3964 } -Rishi > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
