[PATCH 0/4] xfs: fix errors in directory verifiers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

During a code audit of the effectiveness of the new online directory
repair code, it was discovered that XFS does not check the owner fields
of the dir3 free, data, and block format metadata blocks.  It was
further discovered that when the dir3 free block verifier rejects a
block, it does not leave the incore buffer in the correct state.
Correct these problems.

If you're going to start using this mess, you probably ought to just
pull from my git trees, which are linked below.

This is an extraordinary way to destroy everything.  Enjoy!
Comments and questions are, as always, welcome.
