Hello,

After upgrading from proxmox v7.3 to 7.4 syslog is flooded by this error message happening 1 or 3 time(s) by second. Any idea ?

Code:

Is this coming from a container ? How to identify the container sending error ?
I'm running some container running as privileged one, any link with this issue ?
 
i have the same problem.
All my containers are privileged and restarting Proxmox gives the same error

I do need to say I am running proxmox-ve: 7.4-1 (running kernel: 6.2.9-1-pve)

Same here; but with 5.15 kernel, so I imagine this as nothing to do with kern release. I must add that I'm running on a ZFS FS.

while waiting for a fix the real question is "can this error may corrupt data?" if anyone have an answer please share :)
