I've also now ran several iterations w/ the block bitmap fix as well, and still no problems, so: Tested-by: dann frazier <dann.frazier@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > commit 8d5a803c6a6ce4ec258e31f76059ea5153ba46ef > Author: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx> > Date: Thu Jul 12 19:08:05 2018 -0400 > > ext4: check for allocation block validity with block group locked > > With commit 044e6e3d74a3: "ext4: don't update checksum of new > initialized bitmaps" the buffer valid bit will get set without > actually setting up the checksum for the allocation bitmap, since the > checksum will get calculated once we actually allocate an inode or > block. > > If we are doing this, then we need to (re-)check the verified bit > after we take the block group lock.
