After a journal replay, we close and reopen the file system so that any changes in the superblock can get reflected in the libext2fs's internal data structures. We need to save the flags passed to ext2fs_open() that we used when we originally opened the file system. Otherwise we will end up not be able to repair a file system which requires a journal replay and which has bigalloc enabled or which has more than 2**32 blocks; e2fsck will abort with the error message: fsck.ext4: Filesystem too large to use legacy bitmaps while trying to re-open Addresses-Debian-Bug: 744953 Cc: Андрей Василишин <a.vasilishin@xxxxxx> Cc: Jon Severinsson <jon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: 744953@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --- Distributions will almost certainly want to backport this commit. I plan to release e2fsprogs 1.42.11, which will include this fix. e2fsck/e2fsck.h | 1 + e2fsck/journal.c | 2 +- e2fsck/unix.c | 1 + 3 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/e2fsck/e2fsck.h b/e2fsck/e2fsck.h index c71a0a5..998abdc 100644 --- a/e2fsck/e2fsck.h +++ b/e2fsck/e2fsck.h @@ -232,6 +232,7 @@ struct e2fsck_struct { blk64_t free_blocks; ino_t free_inodes; int mount_flags; + int openfs_flags; blkid_cache blkid; /* blkid cache */ #ifdef HAVE_SETJMP_H diff --git a/e2fsck/journal.c b/e2fsck/journal.c index 905c0bf..9be52cd 100644 --- a/e2fsck/journal.c +++ b/e2fsck/journal.c @@ -903,7 +903,7 @@ errcode_t e2fsck_run_ext3_journal(e2fsck_t ctx) ext2fs_mmp_stop(ctx->fs); ext2fs_free(ctx->fs); - retval = ext2fs_open(ctx->filesystem_name, EXT2_FLAG_RW, + retval = ext2fs_open(ctx->filesystem_name, ctx->openfs_flags, ctx->superblock, blocksize, io_ptr, &ctx->fs); if (retval) { diff --git a/e2fsck/unix.c b/e2fsck/unix.c index b265c99..03848c7 100644 --- a/e2fsck/unix.c +++ b/e2fsck/unix.c @@ -1274,6 +1274,7 @@ restart: flags &= ~EXT2_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE; } + ctx->openfs_flags = flags; retval = try_open_fs(ctx, flags, io_ptr, &fs); if (!ctx->superblock && !(ctx->options & E2F_OPT_PREEN) && -- 2.0.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
