X-Git-Tag: v2.6.18-rc2~245
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=73ce5934e2d855db436566297f12966eb507a435;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-3.10.git

[PATCH] reiserfs: fix journaling issue regarding fsync()

When write() extends a file(i_size is increased) and fsync() is called,
change of inode must be written to journaling area through fsync().
But,currently the i_trans_id is not correctly updated when i_size is
increased.  So fsync() does not kick the journal writer.

Reiserfs_file_write() already updates the transaction when blocks are
allocated, but the case when i_size increases and new blocks are not added
is not correctly treated.

Following patch fix this bug.
