https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201685 --- Comment #174 from Theodore Tso (tytso@xxxxxxx) --- One of the reasons why this is bug hunt is so confounding. While I was looking at older reports to try to see if I could find common factors, I found Jimmy's dmesg report in #50, and this one looks different from many of the others that people have reported. In this one, the EXT4 errors are preceeded by a USB disconnect followed by disk-level errors. This is why it's important that we try very hard to filter out false positives and false negative reports. We have multiple reports which both strongly indicate that it's an ext4 bug, and others which strongly indicate it is a bug below the file system layer. And then we have ones like this which look like a USB disconnect....
