ocfs2: extend transaction for ocfs2_remove_rightmost_path() and ocfs2_update_edge_lengths() before to avoid inconsistency between inode and et I found that jbd2_journal_restart() is called in some places without keeping things consistently before. However, jbd2_journal_restart() may commit the handle's transaction and restart another one. If the first transaction is committed successfully while another not, it may cause filesystem inconsistency or read only. This is an effort to fix this kind of problems. This patch (of 3): The following functions will be called while truncating an extent: ocfs2_remove_btree_range -> ocfs2_start_trans -> ocfs2_remove_extent -> ocfs2_truncate_rec -> ocfs2_extend_rotate_transaction -> jbd2_journal_restart if jbd2_journal_extend fail -> ocfs2_rotate_tree_left -> ocfs2_remove_rightmost_path -> ocfs2_extend_rotate_transaction -> ocfs2_unlink_subtree -> ocfs2_update_edge_lengths -> ocfs2_extend_trans -> jbd2_journal_restart if jbd2_journal_extend fail -> ocfs2_et_update_clusters -> ocfs2_commit_trans jbd2_journal_restart() may be called and it may happened that the buffers dirtied in ocfs2_truncate_rec() are committed while buffers dirtied in ocfs2_et_update_clusters() are not, the total clusters on extent tree and i_clusters in ocfs2_dinode is inconsistency. So the clusters got from ocfs2_dinode is incorrect, and it also cause read-only problem when call ocfs2_commit_truncate() with the error message: "Inode %llu has empty extent block at %llu". We should extend enough credits for function ocfs2_remove_rightmost_path and ocfs2_update_edge_lengths to avoid this inconsistency.
