Hi Is there anything new on this topic? I am using Ubuntu 14.04.1 and experiencing the same problem. - 6 HDDs - LUKS on every HDD - btrfs RAID6 over this 6 crypt-devices No LVM, no nodatacow files. Mount-options: defaults,compress-force=lzo,space_cache With the original 3.13-kernel (3.13.0-32-generic) it is working fine.
Then I tried the following kernels from here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ linux-image-3.14.15-031415-generic_3.14.15-031415.201407311853_amd64.deb - not even booting, kernel panic at boot. linux-image-3.15.6-031506-generic_3.15.6-031506.201407172034_amd64.deb, linux-image-3.15.7-031507-generic_3.15.7-031507.201407281235_amd64.deb, and linux-image-3.16.0-031600-generic_3.16.0-031600.201408031935_amd64.deb causing the hangs like described in this thread. When doing big IO (unpacking a .rar-archive with multiple GB) the filesystem stops working. Load stays very high but nothing actually happens on the drives accoding to dstat. htop shows a D (uninterruptible sleep (usually IO)) at many kworker-threads. Unmounting of the btrfs-filesystem only works with -l (lazy) option. Reboot or shutdown doesn't work because of the blocking threads. So only a power cut works. After the reboot the last written data before the hang is lost. I am now back on 3.13.
