This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled jbd2: move superblock checksum calculation to jbd2_write_superblock() to the 3.9-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: jbd2-move-superblock-checksum-calculation-to-jbd2_write_superblock.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From fe52d17cdd343ac43c85cf72940a58865b9d3bfb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 1 Jul 2013 08:12:38 -0400 Subject: jbd2: move superblock checksum calculation to jbd2_write_superblock() From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx> commit fe52d17cdd343ac43c85cf72940a58865b9d3bfb upstream. Some of the functions which modify the jbd2 superblock were not updating the checksum before calling jbd2_write_superblock(). Move the call to jbd2_superblock_csum_set() to jbd2_write_superblock(), so that the checksum is calculated consistently. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@xxxxxxx> Cc: Darrick J.
