This bug only showed up when non-standard mount options (journal_async_commit and/or journal_checksum) were enabled, and when the file system was not cleanly unmounted, but the root cause was the inode bitmap modifications was not being properly journaled. This could potentially lead to minor file system corruptions (pass 5 complaints with the inode allocation bitmap) after an unclean shutdown under the wrong/unlucky workloads, but it turned into major failure if the journal_checksum and/or jouaral_async_commit was enabled. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Eric Sandeen (1): ext4: fix unjournaled inode bitmap modification fs/ext4/ialloc.c | 19 +++++++++---------- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) -- 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
