If we xfs_mdrestore an image from a non-crc filesystem, lo and behold the restored image has gained a CRC: # db/xfs_metadump.sh -o /dev/sdc1 - | xfs_mdrestore - test.img # xfs_db -c "sb 0" -c "p crc" /dev/sdc1 crc = 0 (correct) # xfs_db -c "sb 0" -c "p crc" test.img crc = 0xb6f8d6a0 (correct) Obviously it can't really be correct :) The problem is, xfs_sb_from_disk doesn't fill in the sb_crc field. An earlier commit: 47de6e1 repair: ensure that unused superblock fields are zeroed fixed this same sort of problem for xfs_repair. Do the same for mdrestore. Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxx> --- But ... should we maybe just do this once and for all in xfs_sb_from_disk? I'm not sure leaving it up to every caller is a good idea, unless somebody ahs a reason to pre-populate some fields - I can't imagine why that would be, though... diff --git a/mdrestore/xfs_mdrestore.c b/mdrestore/xfs_mdrestore.c index e57bdb2..0453f17 100644 --- a/mdrestore/xfs_mdrestore.c +++ b/mdrestore/xfs_mdrestore.c @@ -104,6 +104,7 @@ perform_restore( 1, src_f) != 1) fatal("error reading from file: %s\n", strerror(errno)); + memset(&sb, 0, sizeof(struct xfs_sb)); libxfs_sb_from_disk(&sb, (xfs_dsb_t *)block_buffer); if (sb.sb_magicnum != XFS_SB_MAGIC) _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
