This is under stock 2.6.15, sorry I can't post dmesg output because I end up having to reboot when it happens and don't have time to debug right now. It looks like it's in the journal replay code where it keeps trying to grab some block with a ridiculously large offset. > > xfs wins the award for 'noisiest fs in the face of corruption' :-) > After a few dozen backtraces from xfs_corruption_error, > this fell out... > > divide error: 0000 [1] SMP > (The kernel is based on 2.6.16rc4) I see a similar breakage (divide error) on x86 using 2.6.15 Sonny - 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/
