我在家里运行一个 Linux 服务器，主要是一个文件和电子邮件服务器以及一个数字录像机。所有数据都保存在软件 raid-6 上的 ext4 分区上。
整个服务器时不时（有时一天两次，有时每月两次）会锁定。有时我在系统日志中有一个我无法理解的内核报告：

kernel BUG at fs/ext4/inode.c:2118!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP
似乎是内核中的 ext4 驱动程序存在问题。
Process mythbackend (pid: 27841, threadinfo ffff88004262a000, task ffff88007fb83330)
mythbackend正在触发它。
[<ffffffff811731df>] mpage_da_map_and_submit+0x2c6/0x2dc
[<ffffffff8117390a>] ext4_da_writepages+0x2d4/0x465
这是帧堆栈；正在执行哪些系统调用导致了这种情况。
