How easily can you hit this?
Very easily, I only need to wait 1-2 days for a crash to occur.
I wouldn't call that very easily but opinions may differ :). Anyway it's good (at least for debugging) that it's reproducible.
Unfortunately, I can't reproduce it, so waiting 1-2 days is the only option I have.
Good news guys, Robert has just spotted a bug which looks like what I'd expect can cause your lockups / crashes. I've merged his patch to my tree and will push it to Linus for -rc3 so eventually it should land in appropriate stable trees as well. If you are too eager to test it out, it is attached for you to try.
HonzaCan I apply it on top of 4.14.32? I am on vacation for the coming 11 days, so I can only provide feedback when I am back.
Thanks a lot for your support on this issue.
Cheers, Pavlos
I expect that the patch will apply cleanly to 4.14.32.
