mark_buffer_dirty WARN_ON_ONCE on buffer_uptodate

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Stress-testing blk-mq/scsi-mq (3.17rc4/blk-next), I was running 
fio + mkfs.ext4 + e2fsck to 16 mpt3sas devices and unplugged the 
JBOD containing the SAS SSDs.  This triggered lots of mpt3sas,
SCSI midlayer, and block layer error messages, as expected.
The linux device (/dev/sdc) does not disappear here; it just
starts generating errors for every IO.

After it triggered "Remounting filesystem read-only", a 
WARN_ON_ONCE triggered in mark_buffer_dirty in the filesystem
layer.  I don't know if that is expected/desired error handling 
behavior.

That's apparently from this function:
