Subject[PATCH v5 13/14] ubifs: ubifs_writepage: Mark page dirty after writing inode failed
Date
There are two states for ubifs writing pages:
1. Dirty, Private
2. Not Dirty, Not Private

There is a third possibility which maybe related to [1] that page is
private but not dirty caused by following process:

PA
lock(page)
ubifs_write_end
attach_page_private // set Private
__set_page_dirty_nobuffers // set Dirty
unlock(page)

write_cache_pages
lock(page)
clear_page_dirty_for_io(page) // clear Dirty
ubifs_writepage
write_inode
// fail, goto out, following codes are not executed
// do_writepage
// set_page_writeback // set Writeback
// detach_page_private // clear Private
// end_page_writeback // clear Writeback
out:
unlock(page) // Private, Not Dirty

PB
ksys_fadvise64_64
generic_fadvise
invalidate_inode_page
// page is neither Dirty nor Writeback
invalidate_complete_page
// page_has_private is true
try_to_release_page
ubifs_releasepage
ubifs_assert(c, 0) !!!

Then we may get following assertion failed:
UBIFS error (ubi0:0 pid 1492): ubifs_assert_failed [ubifs]:
UBIFS assert failed: 0, in fs/ubifs/file.c:1499
UBIFS warning (ubi0:0 pid 1492): ubifs_ro_mode [ubifs]:
