If "mke2fs -n" is used, there should be no changes to the underlying device. Unfortunately, when the "discard" option was added in commit c7cd908be59f48c66b4f3ac9a631ffe3dde4f1ab, it did not check for the "-n" flag, and will discard all data on a flash device even if "-n" is given. Check for the "noaction" flag before discarding any filesystem data. Signed-off-by: Andreas Dilger <adilger@whamcloud.com> --- misc/mke2fs.c | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
