The patch titled
jbd: ordered data integrity fix
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
jbd-ordered-data-integrity-fix.patch
This patch was dropped because I don't think we want to go read-only on file data write errors
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: jbd: ordered data integrity fix
From: Hidehiro Kawai <hidehiro.kawai.ez@xxxxxxxxxxx>
In ordered mode, if a file data buffer being dirtied exists in the
committing transaction, we write the buffer to the disk, move it from the
committing transaction to the running transaction, then dirty it. But we
don't have to remove the buffer from the committing transaction when the
buffer couldn't be written out, otherwise it would miss the error and the
committing transaction would not abort.
This patch adds an error check before removing the buffer from the
committing transaction.
