Subject: [PATCH 2/6 v5] ext4: fix xfstests 75, 112, 127 punch hole failure
Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2011 19:29:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1313893787-25460-3-git-send-email-achender@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1313893787-25460-1-git-send-email-achender@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
This patch addresses a bug found by xfstests 75, 112, 127
when blocksize = 1k
This bug happens because the punch hole code only zeros
out non block aligned regions of the page. This means that if the
blocks are smaller than a page, then the block aligned regions of
the page inside the hole are left un-zeroed, and their buffer heads
are still mapped. This bug is corrected by using
ext4_discard_partial_page_buffers to properly zero the partial page
at the head and tail of the hole, and unmap the corresponding buffer
heads
