Patch openSUSE-2013-1034 breaks xfs_growfs

Hi All,

Maybe I should report this as a bug myself but I’m not sure how and where to do that.

Recently I migrated all my filesystems to XFS. This works just fine, but I found I could not grow a filesystem while using kernel 3.7.10-1.24.1-desktop. After downgrading to 3.7.10-1.16-desktop xfs_growfs works.

Symtoms while using kernel 3.7.10-1.24.1-desktop:

xfs_growfs error message:
xfs_growfs: XFS_IOC_FSGROWFSDATA xfsctl failed: Cannot allocate memory

Message in system log:
Jan 07 12:55:58 linux-zvf1.ka.haagnet.net kernel: XFS (dm-5): _xfs_buf_find: Block out of range: block 0x4000001, EOFS 0x4000000

Steps to reproduce: create a logical volume, create an xfs filesystem on the volume, enlarge the logical volume and then run xfs_growfs on the filesystem.

As I see it, your report is rather complete.

You can file bugs through: http://en.opensuse.org/Submitting_Bug_Reports

The same username and password as here should work there.

Looks good. And thanks for reporting the bugzilla number here. Makes it easy for others to find and comment on it.
