While this is a oops-like trace, I'm not sure kerneloops.org needs to track that
I ejected the mounted SD card.

Don't know if there's an easy way to distinguish those traces from 'real' ones
though.

Comment 1 Arjan van de Ven 2008-09-13 14:36:25 UTC

kerneloops.org really wants to track this; this is a real kernel bug and one that is actually more nasty than one might think on first sight.

Your action is benign (well some kernel developers quite disagree and will consider what you did very harmful, since you unplugged a mounted and active fs), but the kernel should not trip over it, but it did.

Comment 2 Chuck Ebbert 2008-09-13 14:48:19 UTC

You got a lost page write and a journal abort from ejecting a card with a mounted filesystem. We do want to see journal abort messages and can't really filter them out based on cause.
