Same symptom/problem here with 3.2.0-54. Switching back to previous installed kernel (3.2.0-51 in my case) solves the issue.
I suspect the regression comes from this commit: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2013-September/032287.html * xfs: fix _xfs_buf_find oops on blocks beyond the filesystem end - LP: #1151527 - CVE-2013-1819 For what it's worth, the same change produced the same effects in redhat six months ago: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=909602 ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #909602 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=909602 ** CVE added: http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi- bin/cvename.cgi?name=2013-1819 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1236041 Title: xfs_growfs fails on EBS volumes created from snapshots with increased size To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfsprogs/+bug/1236041/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
