Running a test like the m_uninit test runs:
# mke2fs -F -o Linux -O uninit_bg testfs 131072
results in groups which have blocks allocated for metadata, but
which still have the BLOCK_UNINIT flag set:
Group 2: (Blocks 16385-24576) [INODE_UNINIT, BLOCK_UNINIT, ITABLE_ZEROED]
Checksum 0x17c2, unused inodes 2048
Block bitmap at 16385 (+0), Inode bitmap at 16386 (+1)
Inode table at 16387-16642 (+2)
however, e2fsck doesn't find this error - which seems like another bug.
Doing another test like this:
mkfs.ext4 -I 256 -b 4096 -N 256 -G 1 -g 256 /dev/loop0 1024
mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/test
mkdir /mnt/test/dir
umount /mnt/test
fsck.ext4 -fn /dev/loop0
does find the error on fsck, I think because BLOCK_UNINIT gets
cleared, and the group isn't ignored at fsck time:
Free blocks count wrong for group #2 (253, counted=249).
In the first case, flex_bg is not set; in the 2nd it is set,
but s_log_groups_per_flex == 0 (due to -G 1), so in neither
case is flexbg_size set in ext2fs_allocate_group_table().
This leads to skipping the code which clears BLOCK_UNINIT after
the metadata is allocated.
I think the fix is to unconditionally clear the BLOCK_UNINIT flag
in whatever block group gets metadata allocated to it, as follows.
the m_uninit test needs to be fixed up too, as does e2fsck it seems,
to catch this error in the first place?
Sorry for the long commit message, if the patch looks right I can
try to do better ;)
