Comment 8 for bug 351089

@Mihai,

Looks like you are getting "struct page" corruption, and as a result we see the "Bad page state" messages. It's of interest that you are seeing this in the following scenarios:

NTFS -> reiserfs
NTFS -> XFS
reiserfs -> XFS

Also, this error occurs after writing large files and very probably most the system memory has been exercised during the long duration transfers. If just one file system had this problem I would suspect it's a specific filesystem error, but because it's happening on two different target filesystems I'm more concerned this is a memory issue.

Can you boot the machine and run the memtest for a few hours just to factor out any memory issues before we start looking at kernel page problems and interactions with the filesystems.

Let me know the results, thanks, Colin
