Message-Id: <1434855055-22756-1-git-send-email-tytso@mit.edu> Date: Sat, 20 Jun 2015 22:50:55 -0400 From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu> To: Ext4 Developers List <linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org> Cc: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu> Subject: [PATCH] ext4: call sync_blockdev() before invalidate_bdev() in put_super() Normally all of the buffers will have been forced out to disk before we call invalidate_bdev(), but there will be some cases, where a file system operation was aborted due to an ext4_error(), where there may still be some dirty buffers in the buffer cache for the device. So try to force them out to memory before calling invalidate_bdev(). This fixes a warning triggered by generic/081: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 3473 at /usr/projects/linux/ext4/fs/block_dev.c:56 __blkdev_put+0xb5/0x16f() Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu> --- fs/ext4/super.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/fs/ext4/super.c b/fs/ext4/super.c index fdac076..2858ac0 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/super.c +++ b/fs/ext4/super.c @@ -828,6 +828,7 @@ static void ext4_put_super(struct super_block *sb) dump_orphan_list(sb, sbi); J_ASSERT(list_empty(&sbi->s_orphan)); + sync_blockdev(sb->s_bdev); invalidate_bdev(sb->s_bdev); if (sbi->journal_bdev && sbi->journal_bdev != sb->s_bdev) { /* -- 2.3.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in
