Ok, so if ocfs2 never tries journalling data blocks, then buffer_jbd() will always be NULL, which reduces jbd2_journal_invalidate() to be equivalent in functionality to block_invalidatepage(), and so it will never abort and return EBUSY. Thanks for the explanation, I'll apply the patch. - Ted -- 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
