Subject: [PATCH] e2fsprogs - pass1c terminates early if hard links
Date: Tue, 10 Apr 2007 13:51:12 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.61.0704101344050.29750@webb> (raw)

Ted,

I think this is a small buglet in e2fsck:  if a file has multiple hard 
links, e2fsck pass1c search_dirent_proc() doesn't maintain its count 
properly and may return DIRENT_ABORT before it has found containing 
directories for all inodes sharing blocks.
