Hello! After some more investigating, it seems while the original patch fixes a race with hugetlbfs, it creates an issue for vfio which results in a WARN which will fail xfstests when they _check_dmesg. I have been able to resolve this on our kernel. Today I'll check which upstream kernels it is applicable to and send out fixes where needed. - Leah On Fri, Jun 14, 2024 at 2:08 AM Greg KH <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > On Fri, Jun 14, 2024 at 09:52:21AM +0100, Sam James wrote: > > Greg KH <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> writes: > > > > > On Fri, Jun 14, 2024 at 05:55:46AM +0100, Sam James wrote: > > >> Is it worth reverting the original bad backport for now, given it causes > > >> xfstests failures? > > > > > > Sounds like a good idea to me, anyone want to submit the revert so we > > > can queue it up? > > > > Thanks for the nudge, I wasn't planning on but why not? > > > > 6.1: https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20240614084038.3133260-1-sam@xxxxxxxxxx/T/#u > > 6.6: https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20240614085102.3198934-1-sam@xxxxxxxxxx/T/#u > > > > Hope I've done it right.
