https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199865 --- Comment #6 from Theodore Tso (tytso@xxxxxxx) --- Oops, ignore comment #5; this erroneously posted to the wrong bug. Bug #199865 is triggered by the fact block group descriptors were corrupted due to the fact that one of the allocation bitmaps overlapped with the block group descriptors. Then when a block bitmap needed to be initialized, the corrupted block group descriptors resulted in the byte before the bitmap getting zero'ed. This will be fixed via these patches: ext4: always check block group bounds in ext4_init_block_bitmap() ext4: make sure bitmaps and the inode table don't overlap with bg descriptors -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.
