Yeah, we don't specialcase project quotas (just another quota type) in the fs/quota/ and so errors are the same for all of them... > > > 2467+0 records in > > > 2466+0 records out > > > 1262592 bytes (1.3 MB, 1.2 MiB) copied, 0.0105432 s, 120 MB/s > > > vagrant@localhost:/mnt/loop/abc/mydir3> chattr -p 33 someoutput > > > vagrant@localhost:/mnt/loop/abc/mydir3> dd if=/dev/zero of=someoutput > > > oflag=append > > > dd: writing to 'someoutput': No space left on device > > > 127393+0 records in > > > 127392+0 records out > > > 65224704 bytes (65 MB, 62 MiB) copied, 0.568859 s, 115 MB/s > > > > Yes and as I mentioned above this is deliberate. > > > > > 3- project id '-1" yields fun results: > > > > > > chattr +P -p -1 . > > Heh, that command doesn't work on xfs. Weird, more kernel bugs to chase... Yeah, unlike ext4 xfs refuses to set PROJINHERIT flag through SETFLAGS ioctl which is what makes this command fail. But I don't see anything in the handling of XFS_IOC_FSSETXATTR that would prevent setting of this invalid project id... Hum, after some debugging what I believe is failing is dquot_init() call which tries to initialize project quotas for a new inode, calls qid_has_mapping() from dqget() for this -1 project ID, gets error back (ultimately from map_id_up()) and so dget() fails with -EINVAL which gets propagated out to userspace. > > > dd if=/dev/zero of=someoutput oflag=append > > > dd: failed to open 'someoutput': Invalid argument > > > > Yes, that's a bug that should be fixed.

Are you OK with just refusing to set projid 4294967295 for everybody? Or should we just not try to translate project IDs through user namespaces? Because XFS does not seem to translate them while ext4 does... What a mess. Honza -- Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxxx> SUSE Labs, CR
