1 ext4: evict inline data when writing to memory map
3 From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>
5 Currently the case of writing via mmap to a file with inline data is not
6 handled. This is maybe a rare case since it requires a writable memory
7 map of a very small file, but it is trivial to trigger with on
8 inline_data filesystem, and it causes the
9 'BUG_ON(ext4_test_inode_state(inode, EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA));' in
10 ext4_writepages() to be hit:
12 mkfs.ext4 -O inline_data /dev/vdb

51 We could try to be smart and keep the inline data in this case, or at
52 least support delayed allocation when allocating the block, but these
53 solutions would be more complicated and don't seem worthwhile given how
54 rare this case seems to be. So just fix the bug by calling
55 ext4_convert_inline_data() when we're asked to make a page writable, so
56 that any inline data gets evicted, with the block allocated immediately.
