We certainly didn't but CoreOS may have. I've asked CoreOS if they know what's going on. Are there any extra diagnostics I can gather from a CoreOS system to help figure out what's going on there? Is there anything I can do to get more useful diagnostics when one of these failures occur? As noted, I can reproduce the issue but it's expensive, requiring hundreds of VMs to hammer away for an hour or so. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
