[PATCH 4/5] ext4: don't crash when validating block bitmap

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

 



If EXT4FS_DEBUG is defined, ext4_validate_block_bitmap is called via
ext4_count_free_clusters before sb->s_group_info is set up.  When this
happens, the kernel crashes because group info hasn't been loaded.
Forego marking the group corrupt for now; not setting BH_Verified
means we'll revisit the bitmap if something went wrong.
