Message-Id: <1241692770-22547-2-git-send-email-aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Date: Thu, 7 May 2009 16:09:29 +0530 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> To: cmm@...ibm.com, tytso@....edu, sandeen@...hat.com Cc: linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org, "Aneesh Kumar K.V" <aneesh.kumar@...ux.vnet.ibm.com> Subject: [PATCH 2/3] ext4: Clear the unwritten buffer_head flag properly ext4_get_blocks_wrap does a block lookup requesting to allocate new blocks. A lookup of blocks in prealloc area result in setting the unwritten flag in buffer_head. So a write to an unwritten extent will cause the buffer_head to have unwritten and mapped flag set. Clear hte unwritten buffer_head flag before requesting to allocate blocks.
