Description of problem: I created a partition with jfs filesystem (worked fine) and then I tried to mount it (mount -t jfs /dev/sdf1 /test) - and I got a kernel panic: --- snipp --- f6 : 1003e00000000000ac380 f7 : 1003e6db6db6db6db6db7 f8 : 100008000000000000000 f9 : 10002a000000000000000 r1 : e000000004cf5760 r2 : 0000000000000000 r3 : e0000000048a5bf5 r8 : 0000000000000000 r9 : 0000000000000000 r10 : 0000000000000000 r11 : 0000000000000a98 r12 : e00000012b5e7de0 r13 : e00000012b5e0000 r14 : e00000012aa6e838 r15 : 0000000000000008 r16 : e000000004b016b0 r17 : e0000017212fbc90 r18 : e000000137c0c398 r19 : e000000004a8c400 r20 : ffffffffffa2aa2b r21 : e000000004a8e780 r22 : 0000000000000038 r23 : e000000136aa8bb0 r24 : e000000136aa8bb8 r25 : e000000136aa8b90 r26 : 000000000000005a r27 : e00000012b5e1558 r28 : 0000000000000000 r29 : 0000000000000001 r30 : 0000000000000005 r31 : 0000000000000894 Call Trace: [<e000000004414910>] sp=0xe00000012b5e7960 bsp=0xe00000012b5e13b8 decoded to show_stack [kernel] 0x50 [<e000000004415140>] sp=0xe00000012b5e7b20 bsp=0xe00000012b5e1360 decoded to show_regs [kernel] 0x7c0 [<e00000000442f990>] sp=0xe00000012b5e7b40 bsp=0xe00000012b5e1338 decoded to die [kernel] 0x190 [<e00000000442fa60>] sp=0xe00000012b5e7b40 bsp=0xe00000012b5e1310 decoded to die_if_kernel [kernel] 0x40 [<e000000004431220>] sp=0xe00000012b5e7b40 bsp=0xe00000012b5e12d8 decoded to ia64_fault [kernel] 0xa20 <0>Kernel panic: not continuing --- snapp --- Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.4.18-e.41 jfsutils-1.1.4-1 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a partition with jfs filesystem 2. Try to mount it 3. Get the crash Expected results: I still want mount a jfs filesystem without a kernel panic ;-)
jfs is included only as a convenience, and is not supported.
