[PATCH] ext3: wrong error behavior
SWsoft Virtuozzo/OpenVZ Linux kernel team has discovered that ext3 error behavior was broken in linux kernels since 2.5.x versions by the following patch: 2002/10/31 02:15:26-05:00 tytso@snap.thunk.org Default mount options from superblock for ext2/3 filesystems http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/gnupatch@3dc0d88eKbV9ivV4ptRNM8fBuA3JBQ In case ext3 file system is mounted with errors=continue (EXT3_ERRORS_CONTINUE) errors should be ignored when possible. However at present in case of any error kernel aborts journal and remounts filesystem to read-only. Such behavior was hit number of times and noted to differ from that of 2.4.x kernels. This patch fixes this: - do nothing in case of EXT3_ERRORS_CONTINUE, - set EXT3_MOUNT_ABORT and call journal_abort() in all other cases - panic() should be called after ext3_commit_super() to save sb marked as EXT3_ERROR_FS Signed-off-by: Vasily Averin <vvs@sw.ru> Acked-by: Kirill Korotaev <dev@sw.ru> Cc: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: "Stephen C.
