kernel config

System has RAID6 with ext4 filesystem - 6 x 8TB drives.

Attached are config used to build kernel, output of ver_linux, the raw journal
as well as same run through scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh.

Note that while selinux is in kernel, there it is not being used.

thanks.

system also has 2 x 8TB usb drives using btrfs - but last read/write on that
filesystem was 7 or more hours before the crash.

If selinux is not being used, it's... strange that we could have ended up in
this path, since it requires inode->i_security being set and the LSM code
deciding that selinux was enabled (and so it called
selinux_inode_free_security).

In any case, this is very clearly not an ext4 bug, so I'm going to pass this
off to the linux-security-module list for them to investigate.  Without a
reliable reproducer, though, there may not be much that any of us can do...

--- Comment #6 from Gene (gjunk2@sapience.com) ---
Thanks Ted - sorry to not have a reproducer - this is the only machine that had
a problem and just the once (so far!)

I have a second machine running same kernel also with mdadm RAID 6 setup with
ext4 - but no problems on that one as of now.

The other item of note, perhaps, is the compiler used was gcc 12.2.1 - earlier
kernels used 12.2.0. Build started on fresh base (git -fddx).

Thanks again and sorry for pointing this down the wrong road.
