Hi Darrick, I don't know if you have any time to look at this, but if you do, that would be great. I was testing online resizing with the metadata_csum feature, and found that we're seeing a certain small amount of corrupted group descriptor checksums. This doesn't occur with the standard original uninit_bg/csum_gdt feature. This test below was done with the latest e2fsprogs next branch, as well as the ext4 dev branch. I've also done a test with the ext4 origin branch, which is ext4 with all of the patches that have gone upstream to Linus's branch. The result was slightly different, but I saw the same pattern of block group descriptor checksum failures and inode bitmap corruption. If you could take a look at it, I'd really appreciate it!!! - Ted # mke2fs -t ext4 -O metadata_csum /dev/vdc 8M # mount /dev/vdc /vdc # resize2fs /dev/vdc 1024M # umount /dev/vdc # e2fsck -fy /dev/vdc e2fsck 1.43-WIP (31-Aug-2012) One or more block group descriptor checksums are invalid.
