We are Ubuntu shop running Xenial (16.04) with Linux kernel 4.15.0-36-generic. We recently migrated our application code from Ubuntu 14.04/linux kernel 4.4.0-23. We are experiencing some system hang issues (described below) with 16.04 environment, that we did not encounter with 14.04 and the 4.4 kernel.



Our secondary storage (256GB Micron SSD) is mounted on /dev/sdb with BTRFS filesystem. We are experiencing a system hang during large file copy/modify operations with following messages like this on the system console tty:

This happens sometimes during shutdown (reboot) or during system bringup. We do have several file operations going on in background during these times. We were able to collect "dmesg" output from an ssh session that was still alive:

The following is our /etc/fstab entries that shows the various BTRFS mount options that we have already tried one at a time:



UUID=3a899529-c5e4-42ae-a4ea-7b645f9bcb59 /               btrfs defaults,autodefrag,thread_pool=4,compress=lzo,noatime,subvol=@/netvisor-1 0       1

Does this indicate that we are hitting some known issues with BTRFS filesystem deadlock that may have been fixed in later kernel versions? If so, how should we go about obtaining those fixes in our current kernel? Upgrading the kernel is not an option for us at this time. Are there any other BTRFS mount options or any other system tunable parameters we could try to circumvent this hang issues.
Thanks in advance.

    The following is our /etc/fstab entries that shows the various BTRFS mount options that we have already tried one at a time:



    UUID=3a899529-c5e4-42ae-a4ea-7b645f9bcb59 /               btrfs defaults,autodefrag,thread_pool=4,compress=lzo,noatime,subvol=@/netvisor-1 0       1
    UUID=3a899529-c5e4-42ae-a4ea-7b645f9bcb59 /home btrfs defaults,autodefrag,thread_pool=4,compress=lzo,noatime,subvol=@home 0 2
    UUID=3a899529-c5e4-42ae-a4ea-7b645f9bcb59 /var/nvOS/log btrfs defaults,autodefrag,thread_pool=4,compress=lzo,noatime,subvol=@var_nvOS_log 0 2

    Does this indicate that we are hitting some known issues with BTRFS filesystem deadlock that may have been fixed in later kernel versions? If so, how should we go about obtaining those fixes in our current kernel? Upgrading the kernel is not an option for us at this time. Are there any other BTRFS mount options or any other system tunable parameters we could try to circumvent this hang issues.
    Thanks in advance.

      We are Ubuntu shop running Xenial (16.04) with Linux kernel 4.15.0-36-generic. We recently migrated our application code from Ubuntu 14.04/linux kernel 4.4.0-23. We are experiencing some system hang issues (described below) with 16.04 environment, that we did not encounter with 14.04 and the 4.4 kernel.



      Our secondary storage (256GB Micron SSD) is mounted on /dev/sdb with BTRFS filesystem. We are experiencing a system hang during large file copy/modify operations with following messages like this on the system console tty:

      This happens sometimes during shutdown (reboot) or during system bringup. We do have several file operations going on in background during these times. We were able to collect "dmesg" output from an ssh session that was still alive:

      The following is our /etc/fstab entries that shows the various BTRFS mount options that we have already tried one at a time:



      UUID=3a899529-c5e4-42ae-a4ea-7b645f9bcb59 /               btrfs defaults,autodefrag,thread_pool=4,compress=lzo,noatime,subvol=@/netvisor-1 0       1

      Does this indicate that we are hitting some known issues with BTRFS filesystem deadlock that may have been fixed in later kernel versions? If so, how should we go about obtaining those fixes in our current kernel? Upgrading the kernel is not an option for us at this time. Are there any other BTRFS mount options or any other system tunable parameters we could try to circumvent this hang issues.
      Thanks in advance.

      We are Ubuntu shop running Xenial (16.04) with Linux kernel 4.15.0-36-generic. We recently migrated our application code from Ubuntu 14.04/linux kernel 4.4.0-23. We are experiencing some system hang issues (described below) with 16.04 environment, that we did not encounter with 14.04 and the 4.4 kernel.



      Our secondary storage (256GB Micron SSD) is mounted on /dev/sdb with BTRFS filesystem. We are experiencing a system hang during large file copy/modify operations with following messages like this on the system console tty:

      This happens sometimes during shutdown (reboot) or during system bringup. We do have several file operations going on in background during these times. We were able to collect "dmesg" output from an ssh session that was still alive:
