From c5e298ae53dc2eb69f2f7153be03454c8a33c658 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Sun, 21 Jun 2015 01:25:29 -0400 Subject: ext4: prevent ext4_quota_write() from failing due to ENOSPC In order to prevent quota block tracking to be inaccurate when ext4_quota_write() fails with ENOSPC, we make two changes. The quota file can now use the reserved block (since the quota file is arguably file system metadata), and ext4_quota_write() now uses ext4_should_retry_alloc() to retry the block allocation after a commit has completed and released some blocks for allocation. This fixes failures of xfstests generic/270: Quota error (device vdc): write_blk: dquota write failed Quota error (device vdc): qtree_write_dquot: Error -28 occurred while creating quota Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o --- fs/ext4/extents.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'fs/ext4/extents.c') diff --git a/fs/ext4/extents.c b/fs/ext4/extents.c index 1ba8b4ab03a8..d86d2622f826 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/extents.c +++ b/fs/ext4/extents.c @@ -4456,6 +4456,8 @@ int ext4_ext_map_blocks(handle_t *handle, struct inode *inode, ar.flags |= EXT4_MB_HINT_NOPREALLOC; if (flags & EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_DELALLOC_RESERVE) ar.flags |= EXT4_MB_DELALLOC_RESERVED; + if (flags & EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_METADATA_NOFAIL) + ar.flags |= EXT4_MB_USE_RESERVED; newblock = ext4_mb_new_blocks(handle, &ar, &err); if (!newblock) goto out2; -- cgit v1.2.3
