@Adar, Do you happen to know that last "Good" and first "Bad" kernel versions? If we can identify these two versions, I can perform a kernel bisect to identify the commit that introduced this bug.
It appears you are running 3.2.0-36.57-generic. If this is correct, can you test the following two kernels and report back: 3.2.34: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.2.34-precise/ 3.2.35: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.2.35-precise/ ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Precise) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Quantal) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Quantal) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1101666 Title: inotify fd leak To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1101666/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
