--- Comment #172 from Theodore Tso <tytso@....edu>  2009-11-03 13:58:25 ---
There's a lot more we need to understand --- including why we weren't seeing a
printk message indicating a journal checksum, and which commit was showing the
checksum failure, and why we ended up seeing a checksum failure in the first
place.   If it was the last commit that was being written right before the
system crash, the commit block simply should have been missing due to the
barrier.   But we can do this without having to worry about 2.6.32 being a QA
disaster for ext4.  :-)
