This fs image is problematic for offline resize2fs shrink.
(sorry, it expands to 11G)
# resize2fs <image> 2507776
will lead to corruption[1] because the new size is in the middle
of a block group which has its inode & block bitmaps towards
the end; the bitmaps are left beyond the end of the new filesystem.
I've been trying to find my way around resize2fs, but bleah,
I must admit to being perpetually lost.
I'm not sure there's any simple functionality to handle
this case; does anything else ever need to move bitmaps?
I was looking at blocks_to_move(), and within the "shrinking" loop
I added logic to detect this case:
/* If this (first) group will remain but bitmaps are past EOF, move them */
if (g == ext2fs_group_of_blk2(fs, ext2fs_blocks_count(fs->super))) {
int retval;
blk64_t new_size = ext2fs_blocks_count(fs->super);
if ((IS_BLOCK_BM(fs, g, blk) || IS_INODE_BM(fs, g, blk)) &&
(blk >= new_size)) {
<do something>
}
but at this point I'm not sure what to do. The magic around identifying
& marking & reserving & accounting for moved blocks has me stumped.
I'm happy to keep looking at it but could use some pointers, or if the
fix is obvious to someone, by all means have at it. :)
Thanks,
