** Description changed:

  To replicate the bug, create two filesystems, one with `mkfs.ext4 -I
  256`, one with `mkfs.ext4 -I 256 -O inline_data`. An inode size of 256
  bytes is the default, but included here for clarity. To do this, you are
  going to need an `e2fsprogs` from trunk, or version 1.43 if it has been
  released.
  
  Mount the two filesystems, in each of them do:
-     $ ln -s $(for i in {1..64}; do echo -n .; done) 64
-     $ ln -s $(for i in {1..128}; do echo -n .; done) 128
-     $ ln -s $(for i in {1..192}; do echo -n .; done) 192
-     $ ls -l 64 128 192
+     $ ln -s $(for i in {1..64}; do echo -n .; done) 64
+     $ ln -s $(for i in {1..128}; do echo -n .; done) 128
+     $ ln -s $(for i in {1..192}; do echo -n .; done) 192
+     $ ls -l 64 128 192
  
- Both directory listing will show symlinks named `64`, `128` and `256`,
+ Both directory listings will show symlinks named `64`, `128` and `256`,
  each pointing to a filename with the corresponding amount of dots. This
  is the expected behavior.
  
  Unmount both filesystems, mount them again. Do the `ls -l` again.
  
  The default filesystem will show the same output as previously, the one
  with inline_data activated will show the `128` symlink pointing to a
  filename of only 64 dots.

Title:
  inline_data option on ext4 truncates symlinks

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  To replicate the bug, create two filesystems, one with `mkfs.ext4 -I
  256`, one with `mkfs.ext4 -I 256 -O inline_data`. An inode size of 256
  bytes is the default, but included here for clarity. To do this, you
  are going to need an `e2fsprogs` from trunk, or version 1.43 if it has
  been released.

  Mount the two filesystems, in each of them do:
      $ ln -s $(for i in {1..64}; do echo -n .; done) 64
      $ ln -s $(for i in {1..128}; do echo -n .; done) 128
      $ ln -s $(for i in {1..192}; do echo -n .; done) 192
      $ ls -l 64 128 192

  Both directory listings will show symlinks named `64`, `128` and
  `256`, each pointing to a filename with the corresponding amount of
  dots. This is the expected behavior.

  Unmount both filesystems, mount them again. Do the `ls -l` again.

  The default filesystem will show the same output as previously, the
  one with inline_data activated will show the `128` symlink pointing to
  a filename of only 64 dots.
