Hmmmm. XFS has a history of triggering unique bugs in crypted
volumes - thank you for letting us know up front that this is
what you are using.

Could be - xfs_check will tell you if there is anything wrong with
it.

^^^^^^^^^

That could also be a factor.

^^^^^^^

Oh - you must be running a debug XFS. CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG was only
introduced in 2.6.26-rc1 and defaults to 'N', so you must have
selected the non-default option when prompted. This will cause your
machine to oops at the slightest inconsistency that is found,
regardless of whether it is fatal or not. Like the help text says,
don't set this unless you are an XFS developer....

That aside, what was the assert failure reported prior to the oops? i.e.
paste the lines in the log before the ---[ cut here ]--- line?
One of them will start with 'Assertion failed:', I think....

Cheers,

Dave.
