Subject: [PATCH -V5] Fix sub-block zeroing for buffered writes intounwritten extents
Date: Tue, 12 May 2009 20:46:46 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090512151646.GB23862@skywalker> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090512024218.GH21518@mit.edu>
ext3: Fix sub-block zeroing for writes into preallocated extents
From: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
We need to mark the buffer_head mapping preallocated space as new
during write_begin. Otherwise we don't zero out the page cache content
properly for a partial write. This will cause file corruption with
preallocation.
Now that we mark the buffer_head new we also need to have a valid
buffer_head blocknr so that unmap_underlying_metadata unmap the
right block.
