Hi Andreas,

in reply to your message from 2006
(http://marc.info/?l=linux-ext4&m=116310729115980&w=2)
I have prepared a small patch to check jbd errors on 4 occurrences in namei.c
could you please review my patch

please CC me personally in your reply
Thanks,
Amir.

Could you please regenerate your patch with "diff -up" so that the
function names are included into the patch context.

Here it is.

Also, the patch that you posted back in 2006 mostly handled
jbd error check for "retaking write access" in ext3_clear_blocks().
Do you have a newer patch for that? are you still using that old patch?

Thanks,
Amir.

Thanks for the patch, unfortunately it is a NACK, since there are a few
bugs in the error handling, and some additional cleanups that can be done.

I don't recall which patch you refer to.

More comments inline.

For the 2.6.29+ kernels you need to also include "unlock_new_inode(inode)"
after drop_nlink() in the error handling path.

It seems in all kernels you need to add "brelse(dir_block)" here as well,
because there was a reference gotten in ext3_bread() just above.  It might
be enough to do:

	if (err) {
		brelse(dir_block);
		goto out_clear_inode;
	}

Similarly, this also needs a "brelse(new_bh)" before "goto end_rename".

At this point, if we cannot get write access to the directory buffer, it
is really a bit too late to do much about it.  It may make more sense to
instead call ext3_journal_get_write_access() right after ext3_bread() is
called dor this buffer, so that the error can be checked and the rename
aborted before any changes are made.

Note also that there are some places where ext3_journal_dirty_metadata()
are called in these same code paths, but the error is not checked by the
caller.

Cheers, Andreas

Thanks for your corrections.

Attached is a new patch against kernel 2.6.29.1.
I applied most of your corrections, see my comments inline.
Please review take #2.

Thanks,
Amir.

brelse(new_bh) as well as brelse(dir_bh) are called on end_rename.

good idea. I moved it up.

true, but as with the case above, handling errors before the changes
are made is much easier,
and I am only aiming for 'best effort' in this patch.

Patch looks good.  Full patch included below, because it was attached
