This bug is still NOT FIXED. (Maybe once it was fixed, but now it is there again, so this is not related to old kernels, newer kernels suffer from this again. I think this thread must not be "invalid".)
I'm using Ubuntu MATE 17.04 64-bit,the kernel is 4.10.0-38-generic. My system suffers from extreme disk usage by jbd2, so much that the constant "scratching" from the HDD is slowly drives me insane. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/607560 Title: jbd2 writing block every 5 - 10 seconds, preventing disk spin-down and making noise To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/607560/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
