But I don't think that's right, is it? level[0] is leaf; level[1] is a node, right? Argh. Now I'm more confused; xfs_check has: case XFS_DA_NODE_MAGIC: node = iocur_top->data; xfs_da3_node_hdr_from_disk(&nodehdr, node); if (nodehdr.level < 1 || nodehdr.level > XFS_DA_NODE_MAXDEPTH) { if (!sflag || v) dbprintf(_("bad node block level %d for dir ino " "%lld block %d\n"), nodehdr.level, id->ino, dabno); error++; so nodehdr.level == XFS_DA_NODE_MAXDEPTH is valid there (and level == 1 is a valid node), but repair says: if (i >= XFS_DA_NODE_MAXDEPTH) { do_warn( _("bad header depth for directory inode %" PRIu64 "\n"), da_cursor->ino); so nodehdr.level == XFS_DA_NODE_MAXDEPTH is *not* valid here. indices and counters and depths, oh my. I need to back up and remember what's what. :( ... Still not sure any of this invalidates my targeted fix - although I should just make it a one-liner and do: if (i == -1) { i = da_cursor->active = nodehdr.level; - if (i >= XFS_DA_NODE_MAXDEPTH) { + if (i < 1 || i >= XFS_DA_NODE_MAXDEPTH) { do_warn( _("bad header depth for directory inode %" PRIu64 "\n"), -Eric > --Mark. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
