From b88c91b28706d6881048d3bd52acf2251bedb49a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kemeng Shi Date: Sun, 27 Aug 2023 01:47:03 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: remove gdb backup copy for meta bg in setup_new_flex_group_blocks commit 40dd7953f4d606c280074f10d23046b6812708ce upstream. Wrong check of gdb backup in meta bg as following: first_group is the first group of meta_bg which contains target group, so target group is always >= first_group. We check if target group has gdb backup by comparing first_group with [group + 1] and [group + EXT4_DESC_PER_BLOCK(sb) - 1]. As group >= first_group, then [group + N] is > first_group. So no copy of gdb backup in meta bg is done in setup_new_flex_group_blocks. No need to do gdb backup copy in meta bg from setup_new_flex_group_blocks as we always copy updated gdb block to backups at end of ext4_flex_group_add as following: ext4_flex_group_add /* no gdb backup copy for meta bg any more */ setup_new_flex_group_blocks /* update current group number */ ext4_update_super sbi->s_groups_count += flex_gd->count; /* * if group in meta bg contains backup is added, the primary gdb block * of the meta bg will be copy to backup in new added group here. */ for (; gdb_num <= gdb_num_end; gdb_num++) update_backups(...) In summary, we can remove wrong gdb backup copy code in setup_new_flex_group_blocks.
