From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 7f8a44f37229fc76bfcafa341a4b8862368ef44a upstream. For a sparse inodes filesystem, mkfs.xfs computes the values of sb_spino_align and sb_inoalignmt with the following code: int cluster_size = XFS_INODE_BIG_CLUSTER_SIZE; if (cfg->sb_feat.crcs_enabled) cluster_size *= cfg->inodesize / XFS_DINODE_MIN_SIZE; sbp->sb_spino_align = cluster_size >> cfg->blocklog; sbp->sb_inoalignmt = XFS_INODES_PER_CHUNK * cfg->inodesize >> cfg->blocklog; On a V5 filesystem with 64k fsblocks and 512 byte inodes, this results in cluster_size = 8192 * (512 / 256) = 16384. As a result, sb_spino_align and sb_inoalignmt are both set to zero. Unfortunately, this trips the new sb_spino_align check that was just added to xfs_validate_sb_common, and the mkfs fails: # mkfs.xfs -f -b size=64k, /dev/sda meta-data=/dev/sda isize=512 agcount=4, agsize=81136 blks = sectsz=512 attr=2, projid32bit=1 = crc=1 finobt=1, sparse=1, rmapbt=1 = reflink=1 bigtime=1 inobtcount=1 nrext64=1 = exchange=0 metadir=0 data = bsize=65536 blocks=324544, imaxpct=25 = sunit=0 swidth=0 blks naming =version 2 bsize=65536 ascii-ci=0, ftype=1, parent=0 log =internal log bsize=65536 blocks=5006, version=2 = sectsz=512 sunit=0 blks, lazy-count=1 realtime =none extsz=65536 blocks=0, rtextents=0 = rgcount=0 rgsize=0 extents Discarding blocks...Sparse inode alignment (0) is invalid.

Adjust the checks to handle existing filesystems. Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> # v6.13-rc1 Fixes: 59e43f5479cce1 ("xfs: sb_spino_align is not verified") Signed-off-by: "Darrick J.
