Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2017 15:06:42 -0700 Message-ID: X-Mailer: git-send-email 2.9.3 X-FB-Internal: Safe MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain X-Proofpoint-Spam-Reason: safe X-FB-Internal: Safe X-Proofpoint-Virus-Version: vendor=fsecure engine=2.50.10432:,, definitions=2017-06-28_13:,, signatures=0 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org In fs/ext4/super.c, the function ext4_nfs_get_inode takes as input "generation" that can be used to specify the generation of the inode to be returned. When 0 is given as input, then inodes of any generation can be returned. Therefore, generation 0 is a special case that should be avoided when assigning generation to inodes. A new inline function, ext4_inode_set_gen, will take care of the problem. Now, inodes cannot have a generation of 0, so this patch fixes the issue.
