I just got a kernel bug in EXT4 using 2.6.25 with the ext4 patch queue.
The oops is here, in ext4_da_get_block_write, and the patch involved is
delalloc-ext4-lock-reverse.patch:
static int ext4_da_get_block_write(struct inode *inode, sector_t iblock,
struct buffer_head *bh_result, int create)
{
int ret;
unsigned max_blocks = bh_result->b_size >> inode->i_blkbits;
loff_t disksize = EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize;
handle_t *handle = NULL;
J_ASSERT(handle != NULL || create == 0);
handle = ext4_journal_current_handle();
Note that checking for handle != NULL *before* calling
ext4_journal_current_handle() seems kinda of pointless, since handle is
guaranteed to be NULL at this point. But it does mean that we know the
problem has to be caused by create being 0.
Grubbing around fs/mpage.c, it's not hard to find some paths where a
passed in get_blocks() function is called with create==0, so this is
clearly a bug. ext4_da_get_block_write() needs to be able to gracefully
handle the case where create is set to 0.
What I did to trigger it was:
mke2fs -O has_journal,extent,flex_bg,uninit_bg -I 256 \
-E lazy_itable_init=1,test_fs /dev/closure/testresize
mount -t ext4dev /tar/closure/testresize /mnt
cd /mnt
tar xvjf /usr/projects/linux/2.6.25-mm1-broken-out.tar.bz2
This was a soon-to-be-pushed out e2fsprogs which fixes some bugs in the
lazy_itable_init intialization, but looking at the code, I don't think
the problem had anything to do with that.
