Hi all, This is the ninth revision of a patchset that adds to XFS userland tools support for online metadata scrubbing and repair. There aren't any on-disk format changes, and the main overview is in the cover letter for the kernel patches. Since v8, I have split up the userland scrub patches so that we lead off with a bunch of documentation for the future program and then start building the tool one piece at a time. Most of the scrub activity simply calls into the kernel, but other parts (data block verification, name collision checking) are mostly userspace code. Per my new policy of reducing mailing list bombardment, I am not posting any of the libxfs patches, only patches for actual userspace programs. If you're going to start using this mess, you probably ought to just pull from my git trees for kernel[1], xfsprogs[2], and xfstests[3]. The xfsprogs patches should apply against for-next. This is an extraordinary way to eat your data. Enjoy! Comments and questions are, as always, welcome. --D [2] https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/djwong/xfsprogs-dev.git/log/?h=djwong-devel -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-xfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
