So I asked if you could test with my workaround of taking truncate_mutex at the start of ext2_get_blocks, and report back. I never heard of any response after that. To reiterate: I was able to reproduce a problem with ext2 (I was testing on brd to get IO rates high enough to reproduce it quite frequently). I think I narrowed the problem down to block allocation or inode block tree corruption because I was unable to reproduce it with that hack in place. -- 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
