[PATCH 152/173] ext4: fix credits computing for indirect mapped files

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Mon Apr 25 2011 - 16:36:00 EST


2.6.27.59-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Yongqiang Yang <xiaoqiangnk@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 5b41395fcc0265fc9f193aef9df39ce49d64677c upstream.

When writing a contiguous set of blocks, two indirect blocks could be
needed depending on how the blocks are aligned, so we need to increase
the number of credits needed by one.

[ Also fixed a another bug which could further underestimate the
number of journal credits needed by 1; the code was using integer
division instead of DIV_ROUND_UP() -- tytso]
