Not yet. Mainly because the handling of quota in superblocks appears
to be broadly broken in the xfsprogs code base.

That is triggered by the XFS_SB_VERSION_QUOTABIT not being set, and
xfs_qm_qino_alloc() setting the incore values quotaino values to
NULLFSINO.

Same thing, except we never write the sb_gquotino because group
quota is not enabled. That's a bug in the 3.16 kernel code that
needs fixing.

Only when the XFS_SB_VERSION_QUOTABIT feature bit is set. If it is
not set, then the code will first set them to NULLFSINO as per the
above "new fs without quota" case.

Right, that's the 3.16 issue, and so the fix will need to go to
-stable kernels.

Right, which is necessary for the code to handle the optional
project quota correctly.

New kernels already handle the mixed state just fine, old kernels
don't. New kernels need to be fixed not to leave mixed state on
unmount.

Mkfs can remain doing what it currently does - it's not leaving
mixed state behind.

Repair, well, it's just broken when it comes to quotas. It doesn't
actually check quotas, or even check the validity of the dquots in
the quota files. It doesn't leave the quota inodes in consistent
state, nor does it handle the quota version bits appropriately.

What I think I'll do is finish the quota lobotomisation patch I have
for repair - it just nulls all the quota inodes, clears the quota
flags and marks the quota inodes as unused. It the removes all the
knowledge of quota and quota inodes from repair. This will ensure
that quotas are always in a known state after repair, and they will
always be rebuilt on the next mount.

Note that repair currently always clears the quota checked flags
even if there was nothing wrong with the filesystem so that quotas
are regenerated on the next mount. Hence jsut trashing everything
quota related is not going to change behaviour at all.

Not according to history. Any quota mount failure results in quotas
being disabled until the problem is corrected...

Yup, I have to fix multiple kernel versions as well as xfs_repair.
Not to mention it's clear that the xfsprogs change-over to support
the seprate project quota inode was fundamentally broken, and so I
have to audit everything else in xfsprogs that reads and writes
superblocks and work out how to fix the problems that exist.

Cheers,

Dave.
