[PATCH 44/49] ext4: fix uniniatilized extent splitting error

From: Theodore Ts'o
Date: Mon Jan 21 2008 - 22:04:07 EST


From: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@xxxxxxxxxx>

Fix bug reported by Dmitry Monakhov caused by lost error code

Testcase:

blksize = 0x1000;
fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0700);
unsigned long long sz = 0x10000000UL;
/* allocating big blocks chunk */
syscall(__NR_fallocate, fd, 0, 0UL, sz)

/* grab all other available filesystem space */
tfd = open("tmp", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_DIRECT, 0700);
while( write(tfd, buf, 4096) > 0); /* loop untill ENOSPC */
fsync(fd); /* just in case */
while (pos < sz) {
/* each seek+ write operation result in splits uninitialized extent
in three extents. Splitting may result in new extent allocation
which probably will fail because of ENOSPC*/

lseek(fd, blksize*2 -1, SEEK_CUR);
if ((ret = write(fd, 'a', 1)) != 1)
exit(1);
pos += blksize * 2;
}
