Re: Still a pretty bad time on 5.4.6 with fuse_request_end.

Hey,

I recently ran into this, too. The symptom for me is that processes using the
affected FUSE file system hang indefinitely, sync(2) system calls hang
indefinitely, and even triggering an abort via echo 1 >
/sys/fs/fuse/connections/*/abort does not get the file system unstuck (there is
always 1 request still pending). Only removing power will get the machine
unstuck.

Iâm triggering this when building packages for https://distr1.org/, which uses a
FUSE daemon (written in Go using the jacobsa/fuse package) to provide package
contents.

I bisected the issue to commit
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=2b319d1f6f92a4ced9897678113d176ee16ae85d

With that commit, I run into a kernel oops within â1 minute after starting my
batch build. With the commit before, I can batch build for many minutes without
issues.

âand just in case it matters, building linux from HEAD
(f757165705e92db62f85a1ad287e9251d1f2cd82) with that commit reverted results in
a working kernel, too.
