Hi Tejun just a quick update from my side: I did patch the rc5 kernel yesterday (I am aware that there is a newer one but when you sent the patch, rc5 was recent so I wanted to be on the safe side). There is a little typo on the "dma_boundary" line, the trailing comma is missing. But other than that, the patching went smoothly. Since then I reboot whenever I can. So far 15-20 times and no issue up until now. I will keep rebooting very often for the next days and keep you posted. best regards Carolin On 02.03.2016 16:25, Tejun Heo wrote:

please see attached screen capture. If there is any better way to capture those logs than taking pictures, please let me knowHeh, so there have been quite a few cases where device locks up after a lot of NCQ commands are issued and/or data transfer is taking place at high rate but device locking up on plain WRITE_DMA_EXT is pretty new. Hmmm....
