What did you do? :)
Well, I created 64 station vdevs on an ath10k NIC, which if nothing else, was hitting a zillion
WARN_ON bugs in the mac80211 stack. That flooded dmesg so I don't know if there
were any more serious bugs earlier on.
Hmm, a WARN_ON itself is no problem but maybe the driver corrupted kernel memory and confused UBIFS.
I saw such issues more than once.
Linux is not a microkernel. :-)
and it went read-only. Upon reboot, it is still read-only. Is there something
I can to do debug and/or fix this?

Hmm, UBIFS is unable to find a inode on your MTD.
Can you please mount UBIFS again with "/sys/kernel/debug/ubifs/chk_fs" set to 1?
This will run a self-check and give us maybe more details.
Did you see in the past odd logs? ECC errors or such?
I reinstalled already, and the problem went away. How exactly would I
do that test above? The root file system is RO on bootup in the problem
case...would I remount root after twiddling the debugfs flag?
You need to set the flag before mounting UBIFS.
If UBIFS is the rootfs, boot from somewhere else. e.g. NFS.
Or do it in an initramfs.
That is not an easy thing to do on random embedded systems. Possibly I could add a kernel
command line option...is that supported?
Thanks,
Ben
