trying to make sense out of kernel oops generated in ext4 subsystem while kernel was experiencing high memory pressure

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

 



Hello,

I got a kernel oops from what appears to be ext4 while my system was
very low on memory. I compiled my kernel with debug symbols and traced
it down to a BUG_ON statement in  fs/ext4/inode.c but I'm having a
hard time trying to figure it out from there.

Any help or insights would be appreciated,

Thank you,

Davis
