The patch titled Subject: ocfs2: fix oops when writing cloned file has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was ocfs2-fix-the-oops-problem-when-write-cloned-file.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Gang He <GHe@xxxxxxxx> Subject: ocfs2: fix oops when writing cloned file Writing a cloned file triggers a kernel oops and the user-space command process is also killed by the system. The bug can be reproduced stably via: 1) create a file under ocfs2 file system directory. journalctl -b > aa.txt 2) create a cloned file for this file. reflink aa.txt bb.txt 3) write the cloned file with dd command. dd if=/dev/zero of=bb.txt bs=512 count=1 conv=notrunc The dd command is killed by the kernel, then you can see the oops message via dmesg command.
