From 62965d8347a071c72f4dae96e65be5fb68dd052f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Tue, 1 Dec 2009 16:53:06 +0100 Subject: ext3: Fix data / filesystem corruption when write fails to copy data commit 68eb3db08344286733adac48304d9fb7a0e53b27 upstream. When ext3_write_begin fails after allocating some blocks or generic_perform_write fails to copy data to write, we truncate blocks already instantiated beyond i_size. Although these blocks were never inside i_size, we have to truncate pagecache of these blocks so that corresponding buffers get unmapped. Otherwise subsequent __block_prepare_write (called because we are retrying the write) will find the buffers mapped, not call ->get_block, and thus the page will be backed by already freed blocks leading to filesystem and data corruption.
