The function ext4_da_writepages_trans_blocks contains the following code: if (!(inode->i_flags & EXT4_EXTENTS_FL) && (max_blocks > EXT4_MAX_TRANS_DATA)) max_blocks = EXT4_MAX_TRANS_DATA; Elsewhere the constant EXT4_EXTENTS_FL is used as follows: EXT4_I(inode)->i_flags & EXT4_EXTENTS_FL Should that be done in ext4_da_writepages_trans_blocks as well? thanks, julia -- 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
