oops when ext4 fs is full

[Willy Wolff]

Hi,
I got a Oops when the hard drive was COMPLETELY full using a ext4 fs.
After it, any command on the directory where the last write should have occurred freezes, while any other directory behave just fine.

If this email is not relevant for you, please point me what to do.

Best Regards,
Willy

Linux version 4.18.7-dirty (willy@inc028000049) (gcc version 6.3.0 20170516 (Debian 6.3.0-18)) #32 SMP PREEMPT Thu Sep 27 19:31:11 BST 2018

The kernel is dirty but the modifications are not related to the fs subsystem. The system is running on a Hardkernel Odroid-xu3 but running with the mainline linux at 8ea7eadbef2f7103d5871016f03fc38b3adeaddb
Also, the fs is on a SD-card. I did a fs check after the oops, no errors are reported.

$ awk -f scripts/ver_linux
If some fields are empty or look unusual you may have an old version.
Compare to the current minimal requirements in Documentation/Changes.
