After the fix for resize2fs's inode mover losing in-inode extended attributes, the regression test I wrote caught that the attrs were still getting lost on powerpc. Looks like the problem is that ext2fs_swap_inode_full() isn't paying attention to whether or not the EA magic is in hostorder, so it's not recognized (and not swapped) on BE machines. Patch below seems to fix it. Yay for regression tests. ;) Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Index: e2fsprogs-1.40.7/lib/ext2fs/swapfs.c =================================================================== --- e2fsprogs-1.40.7.orig/lib/ext2fs/swapfs.c +++ e2fsprogs-1.40.7/lib/ext2fs/swapfs.c @@ -133,7 +133,7 @@ void ext2fs_swap_inode_full(ext2_filsys struct ext2_inode_large *f, int hostorder, int bufsize) { - unsigned i, has_data_blocks, extra_isize; + unsigned i, has_data_blocks, extra_isize, attr_magic; int islnk = 0; __u32 *eaf, *eat; @@ -231,13 +231,17 @@ void ext2fs_swap_inode_full(ext2_filsys eaf = (__u32 *) (((char *) f) + sizeof(struct ext2_inode) + extra_isize); - - if (ext2fs_swab32(*eaf) != EXT2_EXT_ATTR_MAGIC) - return; /* it seems no magic here */ - eat = (__u32 *) (((char *) t) + sizeof(struct ext2_inode) + extra_isize); + + if (hostorder) + attr_magic = *eaf; *eat = ext2fs_swab32(*eaf); + if (!hostorder) + attr_magic = *eat; + + if (attr_magic != EXT2_EXT_ATTR_MAGIC) + return; /* it seems no magic here */ /* convert EA(s) */ ext2fs_swap_ext_attr((char *) (eat + 1), (char *) (eaf + 1), -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
