Hi Nick and Tomasz,

Could you please try this patch?  It seems that the problem is because
error code doesn't be clear.

Regards,
Zheng

Subject: [PATCH] tune2fs: clear error code before rewriting directory when metadata_csum enabled

From: Zheng Liu <wenqing.lz@...bao.com>

When we enable metadata_csum feature in tune2fs, all inodes need to be rewrited
to calculate checksum.  In this process, the inode that has been removed also
needs to calculate checksum, but the extent tree in these inodes has been clear.
Thus, we cannot read any extents, and an 'EXT2_ET_EXTENT_NO_NEXT' error is
returned back.  But in this condition error code in rewrite_dir_context doesn't
be initialized, and it causes an unknown error.

we can use this script to reproduce this bug:

#!/bin/sh

dev='/dev/sda1'
mnt='/mnt/sda1'

mkfs.ext4 $dev
mount -t ext4 $dev $mnt # without metadata_csum feature

mkdir -p $mnt/test/1
mkdir $mnt/test/2
echo "hello" > $mnt/test/1/hello
rm -rf $mnt/*
umount $mnt
tune2fs -O metadata_csum $dev
