2012-06-07 17:21:17 Luis Henriques description The following patch is versus 3.5, and the patch will have to be modified for 3.2. However a user has reported this problem with the 3.2 upstream kernel, so I'm sure it's in precise. See the commit description for a reproduction. Could someone running precise try running the repro and confirm you're seeing it with the precise kernel? mke2fs -q -t ext4 -O ^flex_bg /dev/vdd 5g mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /mnt fallocate -l 4600m /mnt/test For the bug fix and any follow-on discussion, please see: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.ext4/32720 == Precise SRU Justification == From Ted Ts'o comment on LP bug: "Given that many LTS users may have large RAID arrays who might not want to copy data to do the backup / reformat / restore dance, and if they were using ext3 and want to upgrade to ext4, they would get hit by this, it would be great if you could get a kernel with this bug fix pushed out with the next kernel release." == Fix == The fix has been submitted upstreams here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.ext4/32720 It has also been forwarded to stable. == Impact == Users upgrading from ext3 to ext4 on kernels 3.2 and above will be hit by this bug. == Test Case == The following allows to trigger the bug: mke2fs -q -t ext4 -O ^flex_bg /dev/vdd 5g mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /mnt fallocate -l 4600m /mnt/test == The following patch is versus 3.5, and the patch will have to be modified for 3.2.
