today I was hit by a kernel bug on the latest mm-unstable and so I was debugging it. but after a few kernel crashes even a normal kernel doesn't boot.... what's wrong with you :(

Not sure if it is a filesystem corruption caused by kernel bug, or they just did happen independently.

@ljs sometimes during kernel compilation, sometimes while shutting down the machine for rebooting...

@ljs directly on host, it was wild memory access according to KASAN.

@ljs hmm I tried to boot using two different bootable USBs but both says something has been corrupted. It makes me think the kernel may be innocent

@hyeyoo @ljs oh no, it seems running mm-unstable made your RAM unstable!
