I'm talking about ext4_add_entry() behavious mainly as an example to better understand how we should handle these situations. In case of ext4_add_entry(), based on our discussions ext4_bread() should not fail once dir entries should not have HOLES, so, a NULL return should indicate a on-disk corruption or an I/O error. Does that makes sense? -- --Carlos -- 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
