Hello all,
A NAND card flipped a bit and caused a data CRC problem in a data node.
When I cat the file, this region is zeroes. cat exits with rc 0.
I can simulate this. I made a jffs2 file system using mkfs.jffs2.
In a file with multiple data nodes, I manually flip a bit in one of them.
At mount time, I see a printk about it. cat exits with 0 and the file has a
chunk of zeroes in it.
Seems incorrect to me. I expected jffs2 to return EIO somewhere.
Does it seem incorrect to you?
