Isn't it a bit late to mark the filesystem inconsistent AFTER the resize failed? If resize2fs dies for some reason it won't be marked. It makes more sense to mark the filesystem in error at the start (at first change at least) and then clear it if there was no error. > Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@xxxxxxx> > --- > resize/main.c | 7 ++++++- > 1 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/resize/main.c b/resize/main.c > index 2dae161..990a967 100644 > --- a/resize/main.c > +++ b/resize/main.c > @@ -455,7 +455,12 @@ int main (int argc, char ** argv) > if (retval) { > com_err(program_name, retval, _("while trying to resize %s"), > device_name); > - ext2fs_close (fs); > + fprintf(stderr, > + _("Please run 'e2fsck -fy %s' to fix the filesystem\n" > + "after the aborted resize operation"), device_name); > + fs->super->s_state |= EXT2_ERROR_FS; > + ext2fs_mark_super_dirty(fs); > + ext2fs_close(fs); > exit(1); > } > printf(_("The filesystem on %s is now %u blocks long.\n\n"), > -- > 1.6.3.2.1.gb9f7d.dirty > > -- > 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 Cheers, Andreas -- Andreas Dilger Sr. Staff Engineer, Lustre Group Sun Microsystems of Canada, Inc. -- 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
