This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ocfs2: mark dquot as inactive if failed to start trans while releasing dquot to the 6.13-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ocfs2-mark-dquot-as-inactive-if-failed-to-start-tran.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.13 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 7f565a86fd7c30bbba26e65889e51c4e2e965a41 Author: Su Yue <glass.su@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jan 6 22:06:53 2025 +0800 ocfs2: mark dquot as inactive if failed to start trans while releasing dquot [ Upstream commit 276c61385f6bc3223a5ecd307cf4aba2dfbb9a31 ] While running fstests generic/329, the kernel workqueue quota_release_workfn is dead looping in calling ocfs2_release_dquot(). The ocfs2 state is already readonly but ocfs2_release_dquot wants to start a transaction but fails and returns. ===================================================================== [ 2918.123602 ][ T275 ] On-disk corruption discovered.

Please run fsck.ocfs2 once the filesystem is unmounted. ===================================================================== ocfs2_release_dquot() is much like dquot_release(), which is called by ext4 to handle similar situation. So here fix it by marking the dquot as inactive like what dquot_release() does.
