A crash issue was reported by John Lightsey with a call trace as follows: ocfs2_split_extent+0x1ad3/0x1b40 [ocfs2] ocfs2_change_extent_flag+0x33a/0x470 [ocfs2] ocfs2_mark_extent_written+0x172/0x220 [ocfs2] ocfs2_dio_end_io+0x62d/0x910 [ocfs2] dio_complete+0x19a/0x1a0 do_blockdev_direct_IO+0x19dd/0x1eb0 __blockdev_direct_IO+0x43/0x50 ocfs2_direct_IO+0x8f/0xa0 [ocfs2] generic_file_direct_write+0xb2/0x170 __generic_file_write_iter+0xc3/0x1b0 ocfs2_file_write_iter+0x4bb/0xca0 [ocfs2] __vfs_write+0xae/0xf0 vfs_write+0xb8/0x1b0 SyS_write+0x4f/0xb0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x75 The BUG code told that extent tree wants to grow but no metadata was reserved ahead of time. From my investigation into this issue, the root cause it that although enough metadata is not reserved, there should be enough for following use. Rightmost extent is merged into its left one due to a certain times of marking extent written. Because during marking extent written, we got many physically continuous extents. At last, an empty extent showed up and the rightmost path is removed from extent tree. Add a new mechanism to reuse extent block cached in dealloc which were just unlinked from extent tree to solve this crash issue. Criteria is that during marking extents *written*, if extent rotation and merging results in unlinking extent with growing extent tree later without any metadata reserved ahead of time, try to reuse those extents in dealloc in which deleted extents are cached. Also, this patch addresses the issue John reported that ::dw_zero_count is not calculated properly. After applying this patch, the issue John reported was gone. Thanks for the reproducer provided by John. And this patch has passed ocfs2-test(29 cases) suite running by New H3C Group.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
