That's the two problems my latest patch series help reduce. I think
they solve this second one, and I now understand the remaining case
I'm tripping over the first one, and that is a case of modifying the
assert to avoid failure.

FYI, that last case is due to specualtive delalloc beyond EOF, and
when allocating the range during writeback being able to allocate
part of what is beyond EOF but not all of it due to limited
available free space sizes. Hence data flushes will never be able to
convert that remaining delalloc range beyond EOF, and so getbmap
will assert fail above on that.

Same problem, different failure modes.

What out-of-tree module do you have loaded that tainted the kernel?
The ethernet driver?

Only way this can happen is if the log has already been torn down
before an IO completion for a log write occurs. Not sure how that
can happen, but we do do some log io (write the unmount record) on
unmount and then tear down the log without having first flsuhed the
buftarg....

Yeah, i don't think it is related.

Cheers,

Dave.
