[arch-general] Kernel NULL pointer and crash - raid bug in 4.1.6 - and fix
I (and others) have enocuntered a pretty nasty raid bug that crashes the machine running current 4.1.x stable. It seems a commit is available but not yet in 4.1.6. (commit 49895bcc7e566ba455eb2996607d6fbd3447ce16) Seems like it is in 4.2 tho. Not sure it's worth patching 4.1.6 with this if 4.2 is imminent - but it may be - it kills the machine and has caused some file lossage. Bugzilla: Upstream: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103711 Arch : https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/46188 Tobias - what do you suggest best way to proceed - skip as 4.2 is out or patch 4.1.6? Thanks gene/

Thanks
gene/ Uploading 4.2 to testing now, so no need to patch 4.1.x.

Uh, we have linux-lts 4.1.7-2 in [core], which has this RAID5 issue, no? Can we get a fix there? -- main(a){char*c=/* Schoene Gruesse */"B?IJj;MEH" "CX:;",b;for(a/* Chris get my mail address: */=0;b=c[a++];) putchar(b-1/(/* gcc -o sig sig.c && ./sig */b/42*2-3)*42);}
