[PATCH 5/5] update i_disksize coherently with block allocation

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

 



Writeback call trace looks like follows:
ext4_writepages
 while(nr_pages)
 ->journal_start
 ->mpage_map_and_submit_extent -> may alloc some blocks
   ->mpage_map_one_extent
 ->journal_stop
In case of delalloc block i_disksize may be less than i_size. So we have to
update i_disksize each time we allocated and submitted some blocks beyond
i_disksize. And we MUST update it in the same transaction, otherwise this
result in fs-inconsistency in case of upcoming power-failure.

Another possible way to fix that issue is to insert inode to orhphan list
on ext4_writepages entrance.
