From 80d05f640a51f94b88640db7f1551f8e8fee44b9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wengang Wang Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2025 14:05:01 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] jbd2: store more accurate errno in superblock when possible When jbd2_journal_abort() is called, the provided error code is stored in the journal superblock. Some existing calls hard-code -EIO even when the actual failure is not I/O related. This patch updates those calls to pass more accurate error codes, allowing the superblock to record the true cause of failure. This helps improve diagnostics and debugging clarity when analyzing journal aborts.
