Subject: [patch 5/7] reiserfs: fix memset byte count during resize
Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2007 19:02:15 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071016230258.847418000@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20071016230210.779927000@suse.com
[-- Attachment #1: patches.suse/reiserfs-fix-resize-meminit.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 876 bytes --]
The following patch corrects the memset in reiserfs_resize to clear
the memory allocated for the new bitmap info structs. Previously,
it would clear the memory used by the old size. Depending on the
contents of memory, this could cause incorrect caching behavior for
bitmap blocks in the newly allocated area.
