           Summary: RHEL Linux Data Corruption found with EXT4 system
           Product: File System
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 2.6.32-220
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocking
          Priority: P1
         Component: ext4
        AssignedTo: fs_ext4@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
        ReportedBy: searchfordave@gmail.com
                CC: lalwanihiro@gmail.com
        Regression: No


The attached file when compiled on a 32GB Mem system, gives a data corruption
if run with number of threads greater than 15

How to run:
1. compile: # gcc random_multi_write_read.c -o test -lpthread
2. Usage:   # ./test <file path> <no. of threads>
3. Run:     # ./test file_1 15

Sample Output:
Starting 15 write threads to file_1 at different offsets and write sizes...
Parallelly reading the file for any data corruption...
DATA CORRUPTION HIT
Actual: '', Expected: 'K'd
, start:4581061500, end:5039167650
...

For More info, refer file "V_loop<%d>char<%c>" which gets created newly to
capture the corrupted data as soon as corruption is hit.

Test system details:
#CPUS: 2
#CORES: 6
SYSTEM MEMORY: 15 GB
SWAP MEMORY: 17 GB
