I don't think so - that's only after the shrink, right? However, I understand your confusion. The test is not at all obvious about what it's doing: > test_description="ext2 1024 blocksize with small block groups" > FEATURES="-t ext2 -O ^resize_inode -b 1024 -g 1024" > SIZE_1=64M > SIZE_2=2G > LOG=$test_name.log > E2FSCK=../e2fsck/e2fsck > > > . $cmd_dir/scripts/resize_test Um, ok, so we "resize test" with those parameters. Looking at that script, which sadly has no comments, it invokes a resize to $SIZE_2 (2G) first, but then does something different: # grep RESIZE tests/scripts/resize_test | grep -v echo if ! $RESIZE2FS $RESIZE2FS_OPTS -d 31 $TMPFILE $SIZE_2 >> $LOG 2>&1 if ! $RESIZE2FS $RESIZE2FS_OPTS -d 31 -M $TMPFILE $SIZE_2 >> $LOG 2>&1 if ! $RESIZE2FS $RESIZE2FS_OPTS -d 31 -M $TMPFILE $SIZE_2 >> $LOG 2>&1 if ! $RESIZE2FS $RESIZE2FS_OPTS -d 31 -M $TMPFILE $SIZE_2 >> $LOG 2>&1 so it does 4 resizes; the last 3 are using "-M" which says "go to the minimum size." Which is a weird thing to do when also specifying an actual size: # grep "\-M" tests/r_1024_small_bg.log ../resize/resize2fs -d 31 -M /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.LoNby5 2G ../resize/resize2fs -d 31 -M /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.LoNby5 2G ../resize/resize2fs -d 31 -M /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.LoNby5 2G But the 2G is ignored.... so it's re-resizing to minimum sizes. On x86: # grep -w "resize\|is now" tests/r_1024_small_bg.log ../resize/resize2fs -d 31 /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.LoNby5 2G The filesystem on /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.LoNby5 is now 2097152 blocks long. ../resize/resize2fs -d 31 -M /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.LoNby5 2G The filesystem on /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.LoNby5 is now 1174 blocks long. ../resize/resize2fs -d 31 -M /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.LoNby5 2G The filesystem on /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.LoNby5 is now 1002 blocks long. on the failing PPC build: # grep -w "resize\|is now" tests/r_1024_small_bg.log ../resize/resize2fs -d 31 /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.4KTO7a 2G The filesystem on /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.4KTO7a is now 2097152 blocks long. ../resize/resize2fs -d 31 -M /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.4KTO7a 2G The filesystem on /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.4KTO7a is now 1247 blocks long. ../resize/resize2fs -d 31 -M /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.4KTO7a 2G The filesystem on /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.4KTO7a is now 1121 blocks long. so they're both shrinking quite a bit. But I think due to the vagaries of the initial filesystem population, the test is behaving differently and just happening to hit this corner case. On the last failing run, the minimum size happens to be calculated at 1121 blocks; with debug printfs: > ../resize/resize2fs -d 31 -M /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.gB4G7E 2G > resize2fs 1.42.8 (20-Jun-2013) > forcing to min size 1121 > Resizing the filesystem on /tmp/e2fsprogs-tmp.gB4G7E to 1121 (1k) blocks. But what's weird is that in this resize run it didn't actually move the inode table; that was done in a prior minimization run, and in this case it seems to have simply shrunk past the existing inode table end. Argh.
