http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12885 ------- Comment #4 from tytso@xxxxxxx 2009-03-18 07:57 ------- Oh, this looks pretty likely to be a software bug. It just seems to be one of these "should never happen; why isn't anyone else seeing it?" things. Maybe it has something to do with the luks encrpytion layer? I don't know. If you could do some experiments to see how easily you can reproduce it, and maybe some hints about how we could reproduce it on one of our machines, that would be really appreciated. If you're willing to work with us on some debugging patches, that would be really great as well. Once you can reproduce it, then we can try to twiddle various variables, such as whether it goes away if you remove the luks layer. We can also try introducing some patches that might log some in-flight information, etc. So trying to see if we can get an easy reproduction case is the first thing that we really need to do. If you have the time to help us out, it will really help us track it down. (If not, we'll understand, of course.)
