From 8d03c7a0c550e7ab24cadcef5e66656bfadec8b9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Sandeen Date: Sat, 14 Mar 2009 11:51:46 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: fix bogus BUG_ONs in in mballoc code Thiemo Nagel reported that: # dd if=/dev/zero of=image.ext4 bs=1M count=2 # mkfs.ext4 -v -F -b 1024 -m 0 -g 512 -G 4 -I 128 -N 1 \ -O large_file,dir_index,flex_bg,extent,sparse_super image.ext4 # mount -o loop image.ext4 mnt/ # dd if=/dev/zero of=mnt/file oopsed, with a BUG_ON in ext4_mb_normalize_request because size == EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP It appears to me (esp. after talking to Andreas) that the BUG_ON is bogus; a request of exactly EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP should be allowed, though larger sizes do indicate a problem. Fix that an another (apparently rare) codepath with a similar check. Reported-by: Thiemo Nagel Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" --- Reading git-format-patch failed
