Yes, it can fail e.g. due to a signal and yes, ext4_setattr() should handle that failure. > It looks to me like it is possible for ext4_break_layouts() to fail if > prepare_to_wait_event() sees a pending signal.

This would silence the warning but leave the inode in on-disk orphan list. That is OK in case of fs-meltdown types of failures like IO errors for metadata, aborted journal, or stuff like that. But failing ext4_break_layouts() needs to be handled gracefully maintaining fs consistency. So you rather need something like: if (orphan && inode->i_nlink > 0) { handle_t *handle; handle = ext4_journal_start(inode, EXT4_HT_INODE, 3); if (IS_ERR(handle)) { ext4_orphan_del(NULL, inode); goto err_out; } ext4_orphan_del(handle, inode); ext4_journal_stop(handle); } Honza -- Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxxx> SUSE Labs, CR
