[PATCH 4.4 48/97] jbd2: if the journal is aborted then dont allow update of the log tail

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>

commit 85e0c4e89c1b864e763c4e3bb15d0b6d501ad5d9 upstream.

This updates the jbd2 superblock unnecessarily, and on an abort we
shouldn't truncate the log.
