From 9c1ee184a30394e54165fa4c15923cabd952c106 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" Date: Wed, 13 May 2009 18:36:58 -0400 Subject: ext4: Fix sub-block zeroing for writes into preallocated extents We need to mark the buffer_head mapping preallocated space as new during write_begin. Otherwise we don't zero out the page cache content properly for a partial write. This will cause file corruption with preallocation. Now that we mark the buffer_head new we also need to have a valid buffer_head blocknr so that unmap_underlying_metadata() unmaps the correct block.
