Good evening, Luis Henriques, folks. Coming back to the Ubuntu 12.04.1 x64 system running kernel 3.2.0-36 which made me open this bug report. (cf. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1105900/comments/0):
Tonight at 19:50 the kernel was updated to K3.2.0-37. ---Synaptic history--- Commit Log for Mon Jan 28 19:50:18 2013 Die folgenden Pakete wurden aktualisiert: linux-generic (3.2.0.36.43) to 3.2.0.37.44 linux-headers-generic (3.2.0.36.43) to 3.2.0.37.44 linux-image-generic (3.2.0.36.43) to 3.2.0.37.44 linux-libc-dev (3.2.0-36.57) to 3.2.0-37.58 Die folgenden Pakete wurden installiert: linux-headers-3.2.0-37 (3.2.0-37.58) linux-headers-3.2.0-37-generic (3.2.0-37.58) linux-image-3.2.0-37-generic (3.2.0-37.58) ---Synaptic history end--- The machine was rebooted to load the updated kernel. ---lsb_release -rd;uname -a output --- $ lsb_release -rd;uname -a Description: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS Release: 12.04 Linux Voyager 3.2.0-37-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jan 24 15:28:10 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ---lsb_release -rd;uname -a end--- ---grep "EXT4-fs syslog" after first boot of K3.2.0-37--- syslog:Jan 28 20:00:57 Voyager kernel: [ 3.919628] EXT4-fs (sda5): orphan cleanup on readonly fs syslog:Jan 28 20:00:57 Voyager kernel: [ 3.937261] EXT4-fs (sda5): ext4_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 2895492 syslog:Jan 28 20:00:57 Voyager kernel: [ 3.937489] EXT4-fs (sda5): ext4_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 2895491 syslog:Jan 28 20:00:57 Voyager kernel: [ 3.937500] EXT4-fs (sda5): ext4_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 2895490 syslog:Jan 28 20:00:57 Voyager kernel: [ 3.937517] EXT4-fs (sda5): ext4_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 2895489 syslog:Jan 28 20:00:57 Voyager kernel: [ 3.937525] EXT4-fs (sda5): ext4_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 2895488 syslog:Jan 28 20:00:57 Voyager kernel: [ 3.937539] EXT4-fs (sda5): 5 orphan inodes deleted syslog:Jan 28 20:00:57 Voyager kernel: [ 3.937541] EXT4-fs (sda5): recovery complete syslog:Jan 28 20:00:57 Voyager kernel: [ 3.969702] EXT4-fs (sda5): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.

Opts: errors=remount-ro ---grep "EXT4-fs syslog" after first boot of K3.2.0-37 end--- This was to be expected because K3.2.0-36 had left behind open file handles on shutdown. BUT: ---grep "EXT4-fs syslog" after second boot of K3.2.0-37--- syslog:Jan 28 20:12:07 Voyager kernel: [ 4.130957] EXT4-fs (sda5): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null) syslog:Jan 28 20:12:07 Voyager kernel: [ 21.736968] EXT4-fs (sda5): re-mounted. Opts: errors=remount-ro ---grep "EXT4-fs syslog" after second boot of K3.2.0-37 end--- Great, no more cleanup needed on reboot. Yet, uptime had been only few minutes. So let us try again a little later. ---grep "EXT4-fs syslog" after third boot of K3.2.0-37--- syslog:Jan 28 22:35:27 Voyager kernel: [ 3.756446] EXT4-fs (sda5): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null) syslog:Jan 28 22:35:27 Voyager kernel: [ 21.520713] EXT4-fs (sda5): re-mounted. Opts: errors=remount-ro ---grep "EXT4-fs syslog" after third boot of K3.2.0-37 end--- Great, again no more cleanup needed on reboot after an uptime of about 2h 23 mins. Prelimary conclusion: ----------------------------- There is good reason to be optimistic that K3.2.0-37 on Ubuntu 12.04.1 x64 has solved the problem introduced by K3.2.0-36. Yet, two reboots are not sufficient to be sure. Therefore, I will use this system in a normal way which implies that it will not be rebooted more than once a day after having been up for several hours. I will report back after a few more days. Let us say by the end of the week.
