Couple of things for all 3 patches. Firstly - 80 columns. We tend to keep the
pformat string on a single line so it is easy to grep for like so:
pr_err_once(mp,
"Insufficient contiguous free space for inode allocation");
Secondly, I'm not sure "print once and once only" is the right
behaviour here. This will only warn on one filesystem and only
once for the uptime of the system. So if you hit this 5 minutes
after boot, then clean up, you'll never get it emitted again even
when the condition reappears 6 months later. hence I think this
should be a rate-limited print, not a print once.
And finally, you should add a xfs_err_ratelimited wrapper, not not
use pr_err_ratelimited() directly and open code the identifier
prefixes.
i.e. something like:
#define xfs_printk_ratelimited(func, mp, fmt, ...) \
({ \
static DEFINE_RATELIMIT_STATE(_rs, \
DEFAULT_RATELIMIT_INTERVAL, \
DEFAULT_RATELIMIT_BURST); \
\
if (__ratelimit(&_rs)) \
(func)((mp), fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__); \
})
#define xfs_err_once(mp, fmt, ...) \
xfs_printk_ratelimited(xfs_err, (mp), fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__);
So we can easily extend it to other logging levels as needed.
Cheers,
Dave.
