Where did this come from? XFS doesn't use the underlying blockdev
address space, so this does nothing at all and should not be here.

So to return errors correctly, xfs_fs_sync_fs() needs to capture
errors from the log force (i.e. metadata errors such as filesystem
shutdowns, journal IO errors, etc), then check for pending data IO
errors. i.e:


 STATIC int
 xfs_fs_sync_fs(
 	struct super_block      *sb,
 	int                     wait)
 {
 	struct xfs_mount        *mp = XFS_M(sb);
+	int			err;
 
 	/*
 	 * Doing anything during the async pass would be counterproductive.
 	 */
 	if (!wait)
 		return 0;
 
-	xfs_log_force(mp, XFS_LOG_SYNC);
+	err = xfs_log_force(mp, XFS_LOG_SYNC);
+	if (err)
+		return err;
+
 	if (laptop_mode) {
 		/*
 		 * The disk must be active because we're syncing.
 		 * We schedule log work now (now that the disk is
 		 * active) instead of later (when it might not be).
 		 */
 		flush_delayed_work(&mp->m_log->l_work);
 	}
 
-	return 0
+	return errseq_check_and_advance(&sb->s_wb_err, since);
 }

Cheers,

Dave.
