But > it seems not enough now.I wrote in my previous mail. Follow your idea, The code should be: if (is_journal_aborted(journal)) { ocfs2_error(osb->sb, "jbd2 status: ABORT.\n"); //this line is important. return -EROFS; } Only return -EROFS then break loop in ocfs2_commit_thread() is not enough. Without ocfs2_error(), ocfs2 could accept new IOs from userspace, then the new IOs will trigger IO error then trigger RO status. This flow is wrong, we should mark RO as early as possible when JBD ABORT happens. In my view, the best place is my [2/2] patch code which in ocfs2_commit_cache().> BTW, the basic rule here is, we don't want to change journal to prevent > other nodes corrupting the filesystem.If my memory is correct, every node has itself special journal partition. If the HA stack assigns the same (before fenced) nodeid to JBD ABORTed machine, No other node could corrupting the fs.> > > 1> > > If in ocfs2_commit_cache, this fix doesn't take any effect for unmount > > failure(hanging). > > When return -EROFS, the caller ocfs2_commit_thread just print error message and > > keep going to retry. > > 2> > > If in ocfs2_commit_thread, it makes commit thread exit/stop without notifying > > other ocfs2 paths.

But ocfs2_abort() may panic system, I'm afraid it has to change to read-only accordingly.>> BTW, the basic rule here is, we don't want to change journal to prevent >> other nodes corrupting the filesystem. > > If my memory is correct, every node has itself special journal partition. > If the HA stack assigns the same (before fenced) nodeid to JBD ABORTed machine, > No other node could corrupting the fs. >I don't think it's a good idea to modify journal even flush fails. Why not catch EROFS in commit thread and break? Now we can only expect umount continues with error, right?
