Hi, I've reported this issue earlier and back then it "resolved itself" after a power-cycle. The hardware in question is the same ac100 netbook with an internal 32GB eMMC. On nilfs_cleanerd start i was consistently getting these messages: [ 46.122096] mmcblk0: error -110 transferring data, sector 26671630, nr 10, card status 0x200900 [ 48.934623] mmcblk0: error -110 transferring data, sector 26671631, nr 9, card status 0x200900 (and similar output for two other sectors) However, this time was different, several full power cycles didn't help and the read was still failing and cleanerd refused to start. So i resorted to brute force, trying to write to the sectors in question. 512 and 2048 byte writes were failing with the same error message, so i tried 4096 and it took about a second but succeeded: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=4096 count=1 seek=3333953 Same has to be done with the other failing sector. And only after that i was able to start nilfs_cleanerd and my system seems to be running fine again. If it happened with e.g. ext4, i would be unable to read a certain file and after several attempts would simply delete it and the blocks in question would get overwritten eventually without any impact for the system usability. However, with nilfs had i not figured out the "dd" trick i would have to overwrite the whole filesystem (and in fact that's the main and only partition on my netbook). The described mmc card behaviour (i.e. remapping bad blocks only on write attempts) seems to be kind of reasonable and i would expect the same problem to happen with someone else one day.
