+/*
+ * Online Scrub and Repair
+ *
+ * Traditionally, XFS (the kernel driver) did not know how to check or
+ * repair on-disk data structures.  That task was left to the xfs_check
+ * and xfs_repair tools, both of which require taking the filesystem
+ * offline for a thorough but time consuming examination.  Online
+ * scrub & repair, on the other hand, enables us to check the metadata
+ * for obvious errors while carefully stepping around the filesystem's
+ * ongoing operations, locking rules, etc.
+ *
+ * Given that most XFS metadata consist of records stored in a btree,
+ * most of the checking functions iterate the btree blocks themselves
+ * looking for irregularities.  When a record block is encountered, each
+ * record can be checked for obviously bad values.  Record values can
+ * also be cross-referenced against other btrees to look for potential
+ * misunderstandings between pieces of metadata.
+ *
+ * It is expected that the checkers responsible for per-AG metadata
+ * structures will lock the AG headers (AGI, AGF, AGFL), iterate the
+ * metadata structure, and perform any relevant cross-referencing before
+ * unlocking the AG and returning the results to userspace.  These
+ * scrubbers must not keep an AG locked for too long to avoid tying up
+ * the block and inode allocators.
+ *
+ * Block maps and b-trees rooted in an inode present a special challenge
+ * because they can involve extents from any AG.  The general scrubber
+ * structure of lock -> check -> xref -> unlock still holds, but AG
+ * locking order rules /must/ be obeyed to avoid deadlocks.  The
+ * ordering rule, of course, is that we must lock in increasing AG
+ * order.  Helper functions are provided to track which AG headers we've
+ * already locked.  If we detect an imminent locking order violation, we
+ * can signal a potential deadlock, in which case the scrubber can jump
+ * out to the top level, lock all the AGs in order, and retry the scrub.
+ *
+ * For file data (directories, extended attributes, symlinks) scrub, we
+ * can simply lock the inode and walk the data.  For btree data
+ * (directories and attributes) we follow the same btree-scrubbing
+ * strategy outlined previously to check the records.
+ *
+ * We use a bit of trickery with transactions to avoid buffer deadlocks
+ * if there is a cycle in the metadata.  The basic problem is that
+ * travelling down a btree involves locking the current buffer at each
+ * tree level.  If a pointer should somehow point back to a buffer that
+ * we've already examined, we will deadlock due to the second buffer
+ * locking attempt.  Note however that grabbing a buffer in transaction
+ * context links the locked buffer to the transaction.  If we try to
+ * re-grab the buffer in the context of the same transaction, we avoid
+ * the second lock attempt and continue.  Between the verifier and the
+ * scrubber, something will notice that something is amiss and report
+ * the corruption.  Therefore, each scrubber will allocate an empty
+ * transaction, attach buffers to it, and cancel the transaction at the
+ * end of the scrub run.  Cancelling a non-dirty transaction simply
+ * unlocks the buffers.
+ *
+ * There are four pieces of data that scrub can communicate to
+ * userspace.  The first is the error code (errno), which can be used to
+ * communicate operational errors in performing the scrub.  There are
+ * also three flags that can be set in the scrub context.  If the data
+ * structure itself is corrupt, the CORRUPT flag will be set.  If
+ * the metadata is correct but otherwise suboptimal, the PREEN flag
+ * will be set.
