Hello,
I am debugging an Windows driver for ext4 and when creating an zero length
file the error below shows up on Linux, while this ofcause is an bug in
the Windows driver (looks like it forgets to flush some metadata) I wanted
to report here that every time I run fsck on this test volume it will mark
it as clean again but without fixing the error, so if I mount and unmount
the filesystem again it is again in need of fsck wich in turn will mark it
clean witout fixing the problem.
Test case, testa and testb is created from Windows and only testb gets one
character written to with notepad:
bo@ubuntu:~$ cd /mnt2/src
bo@ubuntu:/mnt2/src$ ls -l
ls: cannot access testa: Input/output error
