Right - this propagates the ENOSPC error back to the caller without a shutdown being required. If we get a corruption detected, then the allocation will return an error, not nmaps == 0. That error will cause a corruption. But an unexpected allocation failure right at ENOSPC can occur without there being corruption because of, say, one of the many, many near ENOSPC accounting bugs we've had to fix over the past 20 years, and if the allocation fails we should just clean up and return -ENOSPC without shutting down the filesystem. We're right at ENOSPC, so there's every chance that the next operation after the dquot was attached would fail with ENOSPC anyway.... So, yeah, I don't see any reason to shut the filesytsem down because we ended up with a transient ENOSPC error or an off-by one in the free space accounting somewhere... -Dave. -- Dave Chinner david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
