Dear Maintainer,
When copying a file between directories on same mount, the operation hangs with:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
in RIP: 0010:cifs_flush_folio+0x3f/0x100 [cifs]
Debian12 6.1.0-17-amd run as guest in VirtualBox 7.0.12 and the mounted share
is on the host (Windows 10).
Works as expected in the same configuration but with Debian11 5.10.0-27-amd64
as guest.
It looks like we've regression in 6.1.69 (6.1.0-17) kernel update.
There's at least one more report like this:
https://forum.manjaro.org/t/manjaro-vmware-guest-copying-in-thunar-to-cifs-mounted-windows-locations-fails/153942/2
which also mentions 6.1.69 (and an update to 6.6+ fixed the issue).
6.1.69 had at least 3 cifs-related changes, and two of them look
very interesting in this context:
- cifs: Fix flushing, invalidation and file size with copy_file_range()
- cifs: Fix flushing, invalidation and file size with FICLONE
That's copy operation which fails now.
Reassigning to linux package for now..
