https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220299 Bug ID: 220299 Summary: Warning Trace seen at https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.6.69/source/fs/ext 4/ext4_jbd2.c#L73 post remount-ro Product: File System Version: 2.5 Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: ext4 Assignee: fs_ext4@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: chakrashramana28@xxxxxxxxx Regression: No Warning Trace seen at https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.6.69/source/fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.c#L73 is hit by the writeback system even though there is nothing to write and the filesystem has been mounted as readonly. An ext4 fs is mounted with journal=data and a large file is written to it. Then the fs is mounted as readonly-ro post a sync. At this point of time, data consistency is preserved through the sync itself followed by a sync from the remount-ro action. All the dirty pages should be marked as clean in the cache. Yet post the remount-ro, it hits https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.6.69/source/fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.c#L73 and prints the trace as the fs is readonly now. Even though there is nothing to writeback, the wb_writeback is scheduled every 5 secs or so and the same trace can be seen if changed from WARN_ON_ONCE to WARN_ON. -- You may reply to this email to add a comment.
