Hi all, Here's v2 of log recovery torn write detection. This fixes a couple bugs as noted in the replies to the v1 series and replaces the error injection mechanism with an alternate version that actually writes an invalid log record CRC to disk. An xfstests test based on this mechanism is forthcoming. This survives xfstests and runs through a significant number of error injection iterations without any related problems. I have seen one or two assert failures and whatnot that do not appear related to this series and so far are not repeatable. Thoughts, reviews, flames appreciated. Brian v2: - Fixed bug in first bad record detection to return correct block when log wraps. - Update torn record handling to truncate back to tail. - Fixed up warning messages. - Replaced v1 error injection mechanism with log write time CRC error injection. v1: http://oss.sgi.com/pipermail/xfs/2015-November/044841.html - Added bug fix for mkfs log record header inconsistency. - Refactored log recovery code to support a CRC-check-only recovery pass. - CRC verify the last 8 records behind the head to account for concurrent log writes. - Verify the tail of the log as well when the head is torn. - Added (rfc) crc error injection patch for testing purposes. rfc: http://oss.sgi.com/pipermail/xfs/2015-July/042415.html Brian Foster (8): xfs: detect and handle invalid iclog size set by mkfs xfs: refactor log record unpack and data processing xfs: refactor and open code log record crc check xfs: return start block of first bad log record during recovery xfs: support a crc verification only log record pass xfs: refactor log record start detection into a new helper xfs: detect and trim torn writes during log recovery xfs: debug mode log record crc error injection fs/xfs/libxfs/xfs_log_recover.h | 1 + fs/xfs/xfs_log.c | 45 +++- fs/xfs/xfs_log_priv.h | 3 + fs/xfs/xfs_log_recover.c | 569 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- fs/xfs/xfs_sysfs.c | 36 +++ 5 files changed, 541 insertions(+), 113 deletions(-) -- 2.1.0 _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
