IMHO, the best version of the test is the one which cause a kernel crash. So your have got the best one. But as far as Jan already mentioned this is likely core mm/timer issue, not XFS specific one. Google points me that code affected was changed here https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/26/14 Likely that you can trigger the crush w/o your patches. Is it correct? You can try to fix original bug, or simply migrate patches to some recent stable kernel version. > > Regards, > Li Xi > > On Thu, Apr 30, 2015 at 6:07 AM, Dave Chinner wrote: >> On Wed, Apr 29, 2015 at 07:45:40PM +0800, Li Xi wrote: >>> On Wed, Apr 29, 2015 at 3:59 PM, Jan Kara wrote: >>> > Hi, >>> > >>> > On Wed 29-04-15 13:49:08, Li Xi wrote: >>> >> Thanks for the advices.
