Summary: RHEL Linux Data Corruption found with EXT4 system
Product: File System
Version: 2.5
Kernel Version: 2.6.32-220
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: blocking
Priority: P1
Component: ext4
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Regression: No

The attached file when compiled on a 32GB Mem system, gives a data corruption if run with number of threads greater than 15

How to run:
1. compile: # gcc random_multi_write_read.c -o test -lpthread
2. Usage: # ./test <file path> <no. of threads>
3. Run: # ./test file_1 15

Sample Output:
Starting 15 write threads to file_1 at different offsets and write sizes... Parallelly reading the file for any data corruption...
DATA CORRUPTION HIT
Actual: '', Expected: 'K'd
, start:4581061500, end:5039167650
...

For More info, refer file "V_loop<%d>char<%c>" which gets created newly to capture the corrupted data as soon as corruption is hit.

Test system details:
#CPUS: 2
#CORES: 6
SYSTEM MEMORY: 15 GB
SWAP MEMORY: 17 GB
