Subject: [PATCH 1/2] e2fsck: Let end_blk to be the maximum value of u32.
Date: Thu, 17 May 2012 15:16:06 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1337238967-4704-2-git-send-email-tm@tao.ma> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1337238967-4704-1-git-send-email-tm@tao.ma>

Now we can use fallocate to create a large file while keep the size
to be small. It will cause the e2fsck complain about it. The test
script is simple and I have pasted it here.

DEVICE=/dev/sdb1
mount -t ext4 $DEVICE /mnt/ext4
for((i=0;i<10;i++))do fallocate -n -o $[$i*8192] -l 4096 /mnt/ext4/a;done
umount $DEVICE
e2fsck -fn $DEVICE

The error message will be like this:
e2fsck 1.42.3 (14-May-2012)
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Inode 12 has zero length extent
	(invalid logical block 0, physical block 32775)
Clear? no

Inode 12, i_blocks is 88, should be 0.  Fix? no

Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
Pass 4: Checking reference counts
Pass 5: Checking group summary information
Block bitmap differences:  -(8231--8232) -(32770--32778)
Fix? no

Now actually the end_blk can be any value which is less than
u32, so make end_blk be the maximum value of u32.
