[PATCH FOR-STABLE-2.6.28 18/24] ext4: Init the complete page while building buddy cache

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

 



From: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

We need to init the complete page during buddy cache init
by setting the contents to '1'.  Otherwise we can see the
following errors after doing an online resize of the
filesystem:

EXT4-fs error (device sdb1): ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used:
	Allocating block 1040385 in system zone of 127 group
