From: Namjae Jeon <namjae.jeon@xxxxxxxxxxx> When mounting ext4 with data=journal option, xfstest shared/002 and shared/004 are currently failing as checksum computed for testfile does not match with the checksum computed in other journal modes. In case of data=journal mode, a call to filemap_write_and_wait_range will not flush anything to disk as buffers are not marked dirty in write_end. In collapse range this call is followed by a call to truncate_pagecache_range. Due to this, when checksum is computed, a portion of file is re-read from disk which replace valid data with NULL bytes and hence the reason for the difference in checksum. Calling ext4_force_commit before filemap_write_and_wait_range solves the issue as it will mark the buffers dirty during commit transaction which can be later synced by a call to filemap_write_and_wait_range.
