Linux 4.0 Has a File-System Corruption Problem, RAID Users Warned

An anonymous reader writes: For the past few days kernel developers and
Linux users have been investigating an EXT4 file-system corruption issue
affecting the latest stable kernel series (Linux 4.0) and the current
development code (Linux 4.1). It turns out that Linux users running the
EXT4 file-system on a RAID0 configuration can easily destroy their
file-system with this newest "stable" kernel. The cause and fix have
materialized but it hasn't yet worked its way out into the mainline
kernel, thus users should be warned before quickly upgrading to the new
kernel on systems with EXT4 and RAID0.
