Linux Hit By A Data Loss Bug Due To Overly Aggressive FSTRIM

>Linux FSTRIM/Discard is being too aggressive leading to data loss on certain setups

>causing for blocks to be discarded wrongly or too much and that can lead to "massive data loss" issues

IT'S OVER LINUX FAGS

the fuck you talk about?
also post some fucking SOURCE you faggot

redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2019-May/msg00082.html tl;dr everyone who got fsckd is using lvm and dm-crypt

only affects samsung ssd with lvm and dm-crypt using discards. still a big bug, my arch laptop is affected

>arch

so bleeding edge may be unstable, huh?

oh fug that's my setup

>5.1
stable/LTS wins again, thanks for the beta test archtards

>certain setups
you mean you fucked up your backup scheme and something ate your data and now you're blaming TRIM?

>bug in dm
>dm-crypt

NO IT'S OKAY BECAUSE IT'S LINUX

>btrfs
user i...

At least it's not like the time Windows 10 automatically deleted all your personal files during an update.

user you know literally noone is running btrfs here,right? unless they want to be a hipster
99% of linux users have ext4, the 1% of the 1% left might use btrfs. And of that 0.01% only less 0.01% of those use luks, with a samsung ssd , with lvm , with MBR.

literally noone is affected

Its okay cause it leenuck

>linux-fags think they have "secure" system.

I will stick with windows 10. Most secure and stable OS available.

Pic is linux user when they realize their broken OS deletes all of their files.

It's a bug in device mapper, not btrfs, not LUKS. Even having regular LVM is enough. If anything, btrfs would be better here as it can do basically anything that LVM does in its own independent way.

The absolute state of freetards

i've never dared to enable trim on my dm+lvm setup

>tfw HDD
Phew.

>dm crypt
pedos btfo

so let me get this straight, some people here use a operating system that:
- has NO software for real use
- has NO games
- has only niche use as servers and that's it

and now you're telling me that this "operating system" (if you can call it that) is LOSING YOUR DATA? well... that's one way to spend your life I suppose

I use btrfs with all of my spinning rust, lzo and zstd compression can improve performance of them while saving space

>kernel dev community keeps badgering people to update more often instead of using LTS kernels for years and years
>mainline has a data loss/filesystem corruption bug
>just a few months after that other data loss/filesystem corruption bug in 4.19

yeah great job there guys

sure is. vegetative normies will never taste the ambrosia of the GNU/Masterrace

>he will never understand the joy of fixing xorg weekly
I feel sorry for you

I also use btrfs

>linux
Ahem you mean Arch Linux.
Also this is like a week and a half old news OP.

Jow Forumslinux

dmcrypt says not to use discard in the first place because data isn't overwritte though??

discard isn't recommended for encrypted setups as it can cause information disclosure but there's nothing wrong with it when the implementation isn't buggy

device mapper utterly btfo'd.

when will btrfs just get native encryption, then I don't need to use that shitfest for anything other than encrypted swap partions.

Nobody backs up onto ssds, they are for OS use. Backups go on spinning drives

Is this loss?

more like btfofs amirite?

lol

Never forget.

it effects ext4 too.

looks like the bug came from a retarded redhat dev that thought they could stop using "unnecessary" code

Thanks based Linux for making me free from MacBook.
