Due to xfs_repair uses direct IO, sometimes it can't read superblock from an image file has smaller sector size than host filesystem. Especially that superblock doesn't align with host filesystem's sector size. Fortunately, xfsprogs already has code to do isa_file and geometry check in xfs_repair.c, it turns off O_DIRECT after phase1() if the sector size is less than the host filesystem's geometry. So move the isa_file auto detection over up the phase1(), and try to do once geometry check before phase1() if get_sb() return OK. Signed-off-by: Zorro Lang <zlang@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Hi, V2 did a stupid change, it tried to check superblock before get_sb(). So V3 fix this problem by below changes: 1) move the "if (!isa_file)" auto detection over up the phase1(). 2) try to get_sb() before phase1, and check the sector size. Turn off the O_DIRECT if the sector size is smaller than the underlying filesystem. 3) The step#2 maybe fail, due to can't get a valid primary superblock. So keep the similar steps after phase1(), I didn't remove it.
