Please leave this issue open until the fix has been back ported into
the
kernels shipped by Debian.
https://kernel-team.pages.debian.net/kernel-handbook/ch-common-tasks.html#id-1.6.6.4
describes a simple procedure with which one can test patches.
I've attached the above referenced patch and verified that it applies
(cleanly) onto a 6.1 kernel.
Bill: can you test this patch and see if it resolved the issue?
Yes, I can test it. Mostly likely I will not get to doing that until
Sunday
night here in California. For sure Monday morning at the latest.
This took me longer that I wanted, but I have built kernels the
following
kernels with the patch:
linux-image-6.1.0-15-amd64-dbg_6.1.66-2~afs1_amd64.deb
linux-image-6.1.0-15-amd64-unsigned_6.1.66-2~afs1_amd64.deb
linux-image-6.1.0-15-cloud-amd64-dbg_6.1.66-2~afs1_amd64.deb
linux-image-6.1.0-15-cloud-amd64-unsigned_6.1.66-2~afs1_amd64.deb
linux-image-6.1.0-15-rt-amd64-dbg_6.1.66-2~afs1_amd64.deb
linux-image-6.1.0-15-rt-amd64-unsigned_6.1.66-2~afs1_amd64.deb
I have installed
linux-image-6.1.0-15-amd64-unsigned_6.1.66-2~afs1_amd64.deb
on a couple systems. Things look fine, but the problem is intermittent
and I won't be convinced that it is fixed until there are no errors
for at least a day. One of the systems uses kafs heavily so I should
see any errors fairly quickly. I send an update tomorrow.
