From 117aceb030307dcd431fdcff87ce988d3016c34a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Somasundaram Krishnasamy Date: Fri, 7 Apr 2017 12:14:55 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] dm era: save spacemap metadata root after the pre-commit When committing era metadata to disk, it doesn't always save the latest spacemap metadata root in superblock. Due to this, metadata is getting corrupted sometimes when reopening the device. The correct order of update should be, pre-commit (shadows spacemap root), save the spacemap root (newly shadowed block) to in-core superblock and then the final commit.
