Some update: If test with ext2, no problem in iblock. If test with ext4, ext4_mb_generate_buddy reported error in the removing files after reboot. root@(none)$ rm test [ 21.006549] EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:758: group 18 , block bitmap and bg descriptor inconsistent: 26464 vs 25600 free clusters [ 21.008249] JBD2: Spotted dirty metadata buffer (dev = sda, blocknr = 0). Th ere's a risk of filesystem corruption in case of system crash. Any special notes of using ext4 in qemu?
