Hi Marc, Could you please give me an exact procedure that how the environment is configured, and how the commands are executed ? I will try them on my machine to reproduce it.
Well, let's see: source and destination look like this: mdadm raid 5 \ ssd bcache ---- dmcrypt - btrfs Then I do a 10TB btrfs send from dev1 to dev2 The exact commands, some I typed a long time ago. This is live data, not a test environment I just spin up for testing. That said, is that what you were asking about? But as I said, right now I removed the caching device from dev2, so bcache is still there but doing nothing, and I'm still getting kernel OOM problems as per http://pastebin.com/2LUicF3k I'm currently testing 4.19rc5 to see if the VM changes help my case.
