Kernel panic after power outage

Steps to reproduce:

Sudden power disconnect while browsing the internet, laptop has no battery, immediately shuts down. After the power comes back, PC starts with bugs, no write permissions over /home, reboot, kernel panic.

Seems to be a Fedora Silverblue issue.

Have you managed to rollback/rebase?

none of the distro-related commands were available there, I just installed from zero, but it is still a concern for the future, it can happen again

I tried to reproduce this bug on Nobara and it happens there too, so it is not a Fedora Silverblue issue. The error message is the same. The PC was doing nothing at that moment.

(on a raw mutable Fedora Workstation it does not happen)

That’s the BTRFS bug that is wrecking people.

Where should I ask for a solution? Directly with Fedora devs at Github? Having power outages is a common daily problem in my country. And this is destroying my system each time.

You should propably get yourself an UPS to protect yourself from outages.

Now excuse me but this is not the right type of answer to this problem.

okay? What would you like us to do then? We can’t really control if the filesystem breaks itself

That would propably be a kernel dev stuff, if even possible.

you have somekind of hardware fault, proapbly your ram or ssd. Or your filesystem is borked

Thanks. Next time I got this problem I will try that solution, for now it stays with an ext4 filesystem fresh install. Seems to be a hardware issue.

This happened to me after my computer battery ran down. I went to the Control D, decided to just reboot. It rebooted normally.

Mine definitely was not lack of ram or anything other than me just not plugging in the computer to charge and the battery ran down.
