[PATCH] ext4: fix BUG_ON in mb_free_blocks()

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

 



If we suffer a block allocation failure (for example due to a memory
allocation failures), it's possible that we will call
ext4_discard_allocated_blocks() before we've actually allocated any
blocks.  In that case, fe_len and fe_start in ac->ac_f_ex will still
be zero, and this will result in mb_free_blocks(inode, e4b, 0, 0)
getting called, and this will trigger the BUG_ON mb_free_blocks():

	BUG_ON(last >= (sb->s_blocksize << 3));

Fix this by bailing out of ext4_discard_allocated_blocks() if fs_len
is zero.

Also fix a missing ext4_mb_unload_buddy() call in
ext4_discard_allocated_blocks().
