Subject: [PATCH] ext4: call sync_blockdev() before invalidate_bdev() in put_super()
Date: Sat, 20 Jun 2015 22:50:55 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1434855055-22756-1-git-send-email-tytso@mit.edu> (raw)
Normally all of the buffers will have been forced out to disk before
we call invalidate_bdev(), but there will be some cases, where a file
system operation was aborted due to an ext4_error(), where there may
still be some dirty buffers in the buffer cache for the device. So
try to force them out to memory before calling invalidate_bdev().
This fixes a warning triggered by generic/081:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 3473 at /usr/projects/linux/ext4/fs/block_dev.c:56 __blkdev_put+0xb5/0x16f()
