I realise that openSUSE doesn't use ext4 by default, but it's still a significant issue... E.g. both my desktop and laptop have ext4 partitions.
A friend of mine contacted me to say:
« Hi Liam, please note that there is a potential regression (root ext4 fs goes read-only) in the newest openSUSE-Tumbleweed-GNOME-Live-x86_64-Snapshot20181112-Media - as it already contains Linux kernel 4.19.1.
How do I know? I was using Linux kernel 4.19.2 (on Ubuntu 18.04) on 2 laptops - and the root ex4 filesystem on both of them suddenly switched to read-only mode multiple times (never happened before upgrading to 4.19.x). Now I have rolled back to Linux 4.18.19 and will see if fs read-only switching continues.. »

He added:
« If you download the newest image from https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Tumbleweed_installation (2018-11-16), it should contain kernel 4.19.1. openSUSE-Tumbleweed-GNOME-Live-x86_64-Snapshot20181118-Media.iso contains kernel 4.19.2.
So... it's official now. 😀 https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=EXT4-Linux-4.19-Corruption
(And I can personally confirm that the issue is still present in the newest stable kernel 4.19.5.)

Hi Liam, I just upgraded my Leap 15 to kernel 4.19.6. Do you know if the above problem still exists with 4.19.6, or how can I test for this problem?
