Subject: [PATCH] ext2, ext4: Fix issue with missing journal entry
Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2016 12:01:48 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1453921308-5544-1-git-send-email-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com> (raw)
As it is currently written ext4_dax_mkwrite() assumes that the call into
__dax_mkwrite() will not have to do a block allocation so it doesn't create
a journal entry. For a read that creates a zero page to cover a hole
followed by a write that actually allocates storage this is incorrect. The
ext4_dax_mkwrite() -> __dax_mkwrite() -> __dax_fault() path calls
get_blocks() to allocate storage.
Fix this by having the ->page_mkwrite fault handler call ext4_dax_fault()
as this function already has all the logic needed to allocate a journal
entry and call __dax_fault().
Also update the ext2 fault handlers in this same way to remove duplicate
code and keep the logic between ext2 and ext4 the same.
