Subject: [PATCH v3] ext4: Make sure BH_New bit is cleared in ->write_end handler
Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2024 16:59:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241018145901.2086-1-jack@suse.cz> (raw)

Currently we clear BH_New bit in case of error and also in the standard
ext4_write_end() handler (in block_commit_write()). However
ext4_journalled_write_end() misses this clearing and thus we are leaving
stale BH_New bits behind. Generally ext4_block_write_begin() clears
these bits before any harm can be done but in case blocksize < pagesize
and we hit some error when processing a page with these stale bits,
we'll try to zero buffers with these stale BH_New bits and jbd2 will
complain (as buffers were not prepared for writing in this transaction).
Fix the problem by clearing BH_New bits in ext4_journalled_write_end()
and WARN if ext4_block_write_begin() sees stale BH_New bits.
