[PATCH v2 3/5] ext4: fix wrong m_len value after unwritten extent conversion

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Zheng Liu <wenqing.lz@xxxxxxxxxx>

We always assume that the return value of ext4_ext_map_blocks is equal
to map->m_len but when we try to convert an unwritten extent 'm_len'
value will break this assumption.  It is harmless until we use status
tree as a extent cache because we need to update status tree according
to 'm_len' value.

Meanwhile this commit marks EXT4_MAP_MAPPED flag after unwritten extent
conversion.  It shouldn't cause a bug because we update status tree
according to checking EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN flag.  But it should be fixed.

After applied this commit, the following error message from self-testing
infrastructure disappears.

    ...
    kernel: ES len assertation failed for inode: 230 retval 1 !=
    map->m_len 3 in ext4_map_blocks (allocation)
    ...
