It looks like there is absolutely no support for metadata checksums in fs/ext4/move_extent.c. So if you try to defrag a file on a metadata_csum, it leaves the file system corrupted. We really, really should get this fixed ASAP, but until we do, let's disable e4defrag on metadata_csum file systems so we avoid corrupting file systems. Cc: "Darrick J.
