From: Hidehiro Kawai Subject: [PATCH -mm] jbd: test BH_Write_EIO to detect errors on metadata buffers Date: Tue, 09 Sep 2008 17:42:41 +0900 Message-ID: <48C63701.6090700@hitachi.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, linux-ext4@vger.kernel.org, jack@suse.cz, jbacik@redhat.com, cmm@us.ibm.com, tytso@mit.edu, adilger@sun.com, yumiko.sugita.yf@hitachi.com, satoshi.oshima.fk@hitachi.com, nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au To: akpm@linux-foundation.org, sct@redhat.com Return-path: Received: from mail7.hitachi.co.jp ([133.145.228.42]:44734 "EHLO mail7.hitachi.co.jp" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1752838AbYIIInb (ORCPT ); Tue, 9 Sep 2008 04:43:31 -0400 Sender: linux-ext4-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: __try_to_free_cp_buf(), __process_buffer(), and __wait_cp_io() test BH_Uptodate flag to detect write I/O errors on metadata buffers. But by commit 95450f5a7e53d5752ce1a0d0b8282e10fe745ae0 "ext3: don't read inode block if the buffer has a write error"(*), BH_Uptodate flag can be set to inode buffers with BH_Write_EIO in order to avoid reading old inode data. So now, we have to test BH_Write_EIO flag of checkpointing inode buffers instead of BH_Uptodate. This patch does it.
