commit 812c0cab2c0dfad977605dbadf9148490ca5d93f upstream. There are enough credits reserved for most dioread_nolock writes; however, if the extent tree is sufficiently deep, and/or quota is enabled, the code was not allowing for all eventualities when reserving journal credits for the unwritten extent conversion. This problem can be seen using xfstests ext4/034: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 257 at fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.c:271 __ext4_handle_dirty_metadata+0x10c/0x180 Workqueue: ext4-rsv-conversion ext4_end_io_rsv_work RIP: 0010:__ext4_handle_dirty_metadata+0x10c/0x180 ...

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
