/dev/sda1 / noatime,discard,errors=remount-ro 0 1 and yes, you can optimze a lot more but it's not needed, try this like above, reboot and test TRIM. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992424 Title: ext4 filesystem errors on SSD disk Status in The Linux Kernel: Fix Released Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: After Upgrading from 11.10 to 12.04 I quickly got EXT4 Filesystem errors on my root-fs, which will result in / being remounted as readonly. How to reproduce: 1. Boot 12.04 with latest 12.04 kernel (3.2.0.24.26) 2. Start some io-heavy (probably write-intensive) task, like syncing your mailboxes with offlineimap 3. Bumm -> / is mounted as readonly (there are 2 partitions /boot and / ) Dmesg then Usually shows these 4 lines, but nothing more: [11742.577091] EXT4-fs error (device dm-1): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:739: group 908, 32254 clusters in bitmap, 32258 in gd [11742.577100] Aborting journal on device dm-1-8. [11742.577337] EXT4-fs (dm-1): Remounting filesystem read-only [11742.577357] EXT4-fs (dm-1): ext4_da_writepages: jbd2_start: 9223372036854775807 pages, ino 14876673; err -30 You can then reboot your system, let fsck find a few errors it can fix, reboot again (as /-fs changed) and repeat the steps above. I can boot my 12.04 with the kernel of 11.10 (2.6.38-12.51) and everything works fine (except the wireless card, but that's probably an unrelated bug). So I assume it must be a regression in the EXT4-code of the latest 12.04 Kernel. Also I had no problems with 11.10 and all its previous versions. This happens only on my laptop that uses an INTEL SSDSA2CW160G3. On another machine, which I upgraded at the same time and I use as frequently as my laptop, but with a normal SATA disk it didn't happen so far. Both machines, have 2 partitions, while the LVM for the root filesystem and swap is on the second - an encrypted partition: /dev/sda1 /boot /dev/sda2 -> cryptsetup -> lvm -> root -> swap As both systems are setup the same way, but only the desktop behaves badly on the latest kernel, I assume it could have todo something with the SSD disk, therefor SSD in the title of that bug report. My fstab looks like this: $ cat /etc/fstab # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 # /dev/mapper/foo-root UUID=5eb462f7-485f-48f0-a50b-f07de47c8d01 / ext4 defaults,errors=remount-ro,relatime 0 1 # /dev/sda1 UUID=c69c5d4d-179f-43c7-a793-bc10254f2b1c /boot ext3 defaults,relatime 0 2 # /dev/mapper/foo-swap_1 UUID=e8c2dc03-1b7a-4bb9-a983-cdf40d77d50f none swap sw 0 0 Attached is also a dmesg-output with the 12.04 Kernel and a lspci-vnn output. After submitting that bug I will boot into the newer kernel and also attach uname and version_signature output.
