Message-ID: <20131018045027.7339.9686.stgit@birch.djwong.org> Date: Thu, 17 Oct 2013 21:50:27 -0700 From: "Darrick J. Wong" <darrick.wong@...cle.com> To: tytso@....edu, darrick.wong@...cle.com Cc: linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 14/25] e2fsck: only release clusters when shortening a directory during a rehash When the rehash process is running on a bigalloc filesystem, it compresses all the directory entries and hash structures into the beginning of the directory file and then uses block_iterate3() to free the blocks off the end of the file. It seems to call ext2fs_block_alloc_stats2() for every block in a cluster, which is unfortunate because this function allocates and frees entire clusters (and updates the summary counts accordingly). In this case e2fsck writes out incorrect summary counts. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
