I can reproduce the problem with this setup:
- restore the maildir with the broken index.cache
- run
/usr/bin/doveadm -D expunge -A mailbox Trash savedbefore 1win an infinite loop- use horde webmail to access the mail with IMAP
- randomly display messages
I could reproduce the problem on: Linux-2.6.37-hardened-r7 Linux-2.6.39-hardened-r8 Linux-3.0.4-hardened-r5 Linux-3.0.6-gentoo Linux-3.1.4-gentoo
However I failed to reproduce the problem on: Linux-2.6.36-hardened-r9
So it seems it was introduced in 2.6.37. I'm going to inspect it later on. By wishing you a God blessed merry Christmas I thank you for the support ;)
Aha, cool. Glad you're making some progress, and that you now know it's kernel related in some way, just as Timo suspected. Keep in mind it may not necessarily be a code change problem in 2.6.37 onward. Could be a compiler/linker issue. It could also be the default EXT4 journal behavior changed (I haven't checked), or something similar.
Merry Christmas to you as well hydra. I don't really deserve much credit for support here. I've just nudged you in the direction you already knew you should be heading. :)
Best regards,
