From fd98496f467b3d26d05ab1498f41718b5ef13de5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2009 21:34:13 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] jbd2: Add barrier not supported test to journal_wait_on_commit_record Xen doesn't report that barriers are not supported until buffer I/O is reported as completed, instead of when the buffer I/O is submitted. Add a check and a fallback codepath to journal_wait_on_commit_record() to detect this case, so that attempts to mount ext4 filesystems on LVM/devicemapper devices on Xen guests don't blow up with an "Aborting journal on device XXX"; "Remounting filesystem read-only" error. Thanks to Andreas Sundstrom for reporting this issue.
