Subject: [PATCH] fix bogus BUG_ONs in in mballoc code
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2009 13:46:57 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49B958A1.6060805@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <49B93E44.8070109@ph.tum.de>

Thiemo Nagel reported that:

# dd if=/dev/zero of=image.ext4 bs=1M count=2
# mkfs.ext4 -v -F -b 1024 -m 0 -g 512 -G 4 -I 128 -N 1 \
  -O large_file,dir_index,flex_bg,extent,sparse_super image.ext4
# mount -o loop image.ext4 mnt/
# dd if=/dev/zero of=mnt/file

oopsed, with a BUG_ON in ext4_mb_normalize_request because
size == EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP

It appears to me (esp. after talking to Andreas) that the BUG_ON
is bogus; a request of exactly EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP should
be allowed, though larger sizes do indicate a problem.

Fix that an another (apparently rare) codepath with a similar check.
