Subject: [PATCH] corrupted reiserfs may cause kernel to panic on lookup() sometimes.
Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2002 10:18:30 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020103101830.A2610@namesys.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 164 bytes --]

Hello!

    Certain disk corruptions and i/o errors may cause lookup() to panic, which is wrong.
    This patch fixes the problem.
    Please apply.

Bye,
    Oleg
