Bug Description

Doing ls or umount command in ecryptfs directory, then operating systems is dead.

case 1:

> mount -t ecryptfs /media /media
> ls /media // operating systems is dead.

case 2:
> mount -t ecryptfs /media /media
> vi /media/a.txt
> umount /media // operating systems is dead.

this should be a kernel bug.

Hi - sorry that you're having trouble.

What is the lower filesystem? What does "operating systems is dead" mean? Is there a kernel stack trace in the syslog?

eCryptfs is not supported in RHEL 7. I wouldn't expect it to work very well in the centos kernel. I don't think there's much that I can do for you in this situation.

Changed in ecryptfs:

o, thanks

this bug happend when lower filesystem is xfs or ext4.

when clicking return key on ls command line(./> ls /media), there is not any respond information, and don't click any key to enter any letter. Only reboot compute by clicking compute power button .

There is also no any log in the syslog.

thanks.
