Subject: [PATCH] fs/jbd2: t_updates should increase when start_this_handle() failed in jbd2__journal_restart()
Date: Wed, 19 Jun 2013 12:48:26 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51C1381A.2@huawei.com> (raw)

jbd2_journal_restart() would restart a handle. In this function, it
calls start_this_handle(). Before calling start_this_handle(),subtract
1 from transaction->t_updates.
If start_this_handle() succeeds, transaction->t_updates increases by 1
in it. But if start_this_handle() fails, transaction->t_updates does
not increase.
So, when commit the handle's transaction in jbd2_journal_stop(), the
assertion is false, and then trigger a bug.
The assertion is as follows:
J_ASSERT(atomic_read(&transaction->t_updates) > 0)
