Subject: Re: found an error that e2fsck does not fix


Hello,

first I want to say that we have found the bug: ext4_ext_tree_init was 
only called when first extending the file and not at create time.

However e2fsck 1.42.13 (17-May-2015) does not fix the error so I have 
created the test images you asked for:

/* create test fs */
sudo dd bs=1024 count=1024 if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb5
sudo mke2fs -b 4096 /dev/sdb5 1M
sudo tune2fs -O extents /dev/sdb5

/* reboot to Windows and create file 'testa' and 'testb' */

/* create the images attached */
sudo dd bs=1024 count=1024 if=/dev/sdb5 of=ext4.img
sudo e2image -r /dev/sdb5 - | bzip2 > sdb5.e2i.bz2

/* then try the fs from Linux */
bo@...ntu:~$ sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb5 /mnt
bo@...ntu:~$ ls -l /mnt
