[PATCH] ext4: add checksum calculation when clearing UNINIT flag

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Frederic Bohe <frederic.bohe@xxxxxxxx>

Block group's checksum need to be re-calculated during the
initialization of an UNINIT'd group. This fix a race when several
threads try to allocate a new inode in an UNINIT'd group.
