I frequently get segmentation faults in newer kernel >v5.8-rc2 e.g. Chrome_ChildIOT[1298]: segfault at 40d048 ip 000056111a41970d sp 00007fdced6931b0 error 6 in chrome[561115f64000+785b000]
Bisection gave me the following first bad commit: e9c15badbb7b20ccdbadf5da14e0a68fbad51015 is the first bad commit commit e9c15badbb7b20ccdbadf5da14e0a68fbad51015 Author: Mel Gorman <mgor...@techsingularity.net> Date: Mon Jun 15 13:13:58 2020 +0100 fs: Do not check if there is a fsnotify watcher on pseudo inodes ... I double checked by reverting this commit on top of v5.8-rc3 and the segmentation faults are gone. Jörg
