Hi,

I'm using SL 6 (RHEL 6) and I've been playing around with running
PostgreSQL on btrfs. Snapshotting works ok, but the computer keeps
rebooting without warning (can be 5 mins or 1.5 hours), finally I
actually managed to get a Kernel Crash instead of just a reboot.

I took a picture of the screen:

The important bits are:

IP: [<ffffffffa032c471>] btrfs_print_leaf +0x31/0x820 [btrfs]
PGD 0
Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
last sysfs file: /sys/devices/virtual/block/dm-3/dm/name

The crashes aren't predictable either. Like it doesn't always happen
when I do a snapshot or anything like that.

Is this a known problem, that is fixed in a later kernel or something like that?

btrfs seems cool though, I hope there is something I just
misconfiguredĀ or something so that I can get it to be more reliable,
although I do acknowledge that this is an experimental filesystem.

Cheers,

-Joel
