I think it does mean that snapper + LV thin-provisioned snapshots for ext4 should be enough to trigger it. Just make sure that dmeventd is running before you try to reboot or shutdown. You may also note that dmeventd refuses to exit with SIGTERM.
Does the problem happen every time when you shutdown or reboot? Or only occurred when the system is happening to run "dmeventd" deamon? What we need to known is what the lvm is doing there? We can imagine that snapper (hourly according to you) tell lvm to take snapshot, after that, the cleanup algorithm will also let lvm to cleanup the old snapshot. I don't know how long each of the operations lvm will take, which decides how busy lvm is, and the time window the shutdown meets a working lvm. It is reasonable if shutdown happens during lvm is busy. Anyway, I will look into more when I get time;-)
Probably not relevant, but note I have an extra volume mounted inside the /home FS. It's a regular volume, also ext4, not being snapshotted.
it's fine;-) Eric -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
