Hm, this seems wrong, as well - per the man page:

"If the value is omitted, 1 is assumed."

but this change with the reqval() removes that, doesn't it?  Why?
(it's fixed later, but there is no reason to break it mid-series...)
Changed back to default 1. ​As for the origin of the change, most likely a copy&paste from some other place, where wasn't a default value, or it was there since I took over the patchset.

should we really have "finobtflag" in this structure?
This structure should only carry feature selections, not feature
specification flags I think.  Why is this the only such flag
in the structure?

Pretty sure finobtflag should stay a variable for now
just like lvflag (which goes with log_version).

 
​It might be right to move it out​, but the flag is removed few patches later entirely. Is it worth of the work? I would say nah, let it die where it is. :-)

hm, why is conflict checking added?  It's not what the commit says
the patch does.

It also regresses the bug I fixed in

commit b990de8ba4e2df2bc76a140799d3ddb4a0eac4ce
Author: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@xxxxxxxxxxx>

    mkfs.xfs: fix ftype-vs-crc option combination testing

with this patch, it is broken again:

# mkfs/mkfs.xfs -m crc=0 -n ftype=1 -dfile,name=fsfile,size=16g
<success>
 # mkfs/mkfs.xfs -n ftype=1 -m crc=0 -dfile,name=fsfile,size=16g
cannot specify both crc and ftype
Usage: mkfs.xfs
...

​Because the patch is much older than your fix, and at the time it was created, it is possible that there wasn't any such check... I would call it the risk of necromancy. :-)​

Anyway, I already fixed this issue in this cycle, and added the the ftype, crc order into a test checking for options sanity. Just I didn't submitted the change yet.

like I mentioned, just this, I think (assuming we like the silent turning
off, but that would be a different patch):
 
​Merging the conditions is indeed cleaner.

And I will change it to failure, if the conflicting options are given explicitly. Just a small patch adding "usage();" and removing "warning"...​

Cheers,
Jan
