...(), you'll note it does some buffer_head bit checks and then calls refile_buffer(). Mine currently looks like the following: if (!buffer_dirty(bh) && !buffer_jdirty(bh) && !buffer_journaled(bh) && bh->b_list != BUF_CLEAN) { unlock_journal(journal); refile_buffer(bh); lock_journal(journal); return 1; } Note the addition of the !buffer_journaled(bh) check. Okay, so using all of the above, I have now been...

I have ext3 0.0.6b + 2.2.19 and cannot get ext3 to compile as a module. If I try to modularize it, or turn in off completely, the kernel build fails. Is there an easy fix for this, or is there something that I am missing? Thanks. Peter

Well.... you might remember that I have had problems will my NFS fileserver that run ext3 with data=journal. The filesystem corruption now seems too be solved with the patch (plus amendment) that I posted, so I am happy about that... but there is more. I have known for a while that ext3 doesn't behave very well when the journal fills up. If it finds that the journal is full, and the
