jbd2 currently creates statistics files for each loaded journal in /proc/fs/jbd2/<bdevname>. ocfs2 loads multiple journals when recovering other nodes, and the multiple journals on a given bdev collide in the proc namespace. This patch changes the location to /proc/fs/jbd2/<bdevname>-<i_ino> as proposed by Jan Kara. ocfs2 can load multiple journals safely without collision. There are, to my knowledge, no programmatic users, so the name change shouldn't (haha) cause any problems. ocfs2 has 64bit inode numbers, so a collision could theoretically happen with inodes above 32bits, but ocfs2 journals are generally created at the front of the volume during mkfs(8). In addition, ocfs2 restricts inodes to 32bits unless the 'inode64' option is specified.

We have most unfortunately found it necessary to get rid of a man as soon as he thinks himself an expert -- because no one ever considers himself expert if he really knows his job. A man who knows a job sees so much more to be done than he has done, that he is always pressing forward and never gives up an instant of thought to how good and how efficient he is. Thinking always ahead, thinking always of trying to do more, brings a state of mind in which nothing is impossible. The moment one gets into the "expert" state of mind a great number of things become impossible. - From Henry Ford Sr., "My Life and Work" Joel Becker Principal Software Developer Oracle E-mail: joel.becker@xxxxxxxxxx Phone: (650) 506-8127 -- 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
