Hi Marcelo, Please add "f2fs: show flush list status in sysfs" first in your repo.
And please try: 1. mount without flush_merge option and do the test to see whether it is caused by issue of the feature or lower block layer. For disabling the feature: mount -o noflush_merge 2. do test with last codes in dev-test branch. If the problem is still there, please dump info with: echo l > /proc/sysrq-trigger echo w > /proc/sysrq-trigger dmesg cat /sys/kernel/debug/f2fs/status Thanks, On 2017/9/1 12:54, Marcelo "Marc" Ranolfi wrote: > Hi, > > no problem at all. > > No, I never did ro remount before it happened.
