As a little side note, using direct I/O with ext4 has resulted in many other crashes on my system including softlockups and various other oopses. ext4's direct involvement could be seen in ~50% of them. So this "kernel BUG" is not the only possible outcome. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.
