Subject: [PATCH] e2fsck: try write_primary_superblock() again when it failed
Date: Tue, 13 Apr 2021 11:19:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7486f08c-7f14-9fac-fdb2-0fe78a799d90@huawei.com> (raw)

Function write_primary_superblock() has two ways to flush
superblock, byte-by-byte as default. It may use
io_channel_write_byte() many times. If some errors occur
during these funcs, the superblock may become inconsistent
and produce checksum error.

Try write_primary_superblock() with whole-block way again
when it failed on byte-by-byte way.
