https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195561 --- Comment #26 from Theodore Tso (tytso@xxxxxxx) --- Can you use e2fsck -fy /dev/devXX on the sdcard *before* you copy the file? How was the sdcard formatted? Can you give me a clean reproduction that doesn't involve using AOSP userspace? For example, on a build an x86 kernel and then boot it using using kvm-xfstests[1]. [1] https://github.com/tytso/xfstests-bld/blob/master/Documentation/kvm-quickstart.md Then try to reproduce it there. For example: % kvm-xfstests shell ... root@kvm-xfstests:~# mke2fs -F -t ext4 /dev/vdc mke2fs 1.43.5-WIP-ed1e950f (26-Apr-2017) /dev/vdc contains a ext4 file system last mounted on /vdc on Wed May 3 13:44:28 2017 Creating filesystem with 1310720 4k blocks and 327680 inodes Filesystem UUID: 15426c7f-5695-4cd8-9b2e-78288883b877 Superblock backups stored on blocks: 32768, 98304, 163840, 229376, 294912, 819200, 884736 Allocating group tables: done Writing inode tables: done Creating journal (16384 blocks): done Writing superblocks and filesystem accounting information: done root@kvm-xfstests:~# mount /dev/vdc /vdc [ 84.418730] EXT4-fs (vdc): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.
