Specifically, in should_writeback(), we were hitting a case where an optimisation for partial stripe conditions was returning true and so should_writeback() was returning true early. This caused the code to go down an incorrect path and create bios that contained NULL pointers. To fix this issue, make sure that should_writeback() on a discard op never returns true. [Test Case] We have observed it on some systems where both: 1) LVM/devmapper is involved (bcache backing device is LVM volume) and 2) writeback cache is involved (bcache cache_mode is writeback) Not every machine exhibits the bug. On one machine that does exhibit the bug, we can reliably reproduce it with: # echo writeback > /sys/block/bcache0/bcache/cache_mode # mount /dev/bcache0 /test # for i in {0..10}; do file="$(mktemp /test/zero.XXX)"; dd if=/dev/zero of="$file" bs=1M count=256; sync; rm $file; done; fstrim -v /test [Regression Potential] This could affect any device where bcache is used. In mitigation, however: the patch is simple, is limited to considering discard operations. The patch has been accepted upstream [1] and the maintainer will be including it in SuSE kernels [2]. A Gentoo user validated the upstream patch independently [3].

I had just a short while before created a new bcache device that was mounted but to which no data had been written yet. Then without any apparent particular reason, an apport error popped up to inform of a bcache kernel oops. Crash log was uploaded but no idea how to link it, so I attach it as well. Mostly I would like to know how concerned I should be as after a previous, successful test I wanted to move the whole install to bcache. Ideally, if this is a bug or similar, it would be nice if it could get fixed.
