From 97fbf573460e56ddf172614f70cdfa2af03b20ea Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Wed, 22 May 2019 10:27:01 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: don't perform block validity checks on the journal inode [ Upstream commit 0a944e8a6c66ca04c7afbaa17e22bf208a8b37f0 ] Since the journal inode is already checked when we added it to the block validity's system zone, if we check it again, we'll just trigger a failure. This was causing failures like this: [ 53.897001] EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_find_extent:909: inode #8: comm jbd2/sda-8: pblk 121667583 bad header/extent: invalid extent entries - magic f30a, entries 8, max 340(340), depth 0(0) [ 53.931430] jbd2_journal_bmap: journal block not found at offset 49 on sda-8 [ 53.938480] Aborting journal on device sda-8. ... but only if the system was under enough memory pressure that logical->physical mapping for the journal inode gets pushed out of the extent cache. (This is why it wasn't noticed earlier.)
