Hello - New iteration (v5) of this series... Current xfs_repair uses a brute force approach to find a valid secondary sb. This series optimizes the secondary sb search, using similar method to determine geometry as that of xfs_mkfs. If the faster method fails in its search, fall back to original brute force slower search. version history: ---- v1: http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2016-02/msg00304.html v2: patch 2 whitespace fixups v3: patch 2 correct functionality; style fixups v4: patch 1,2 properly see to style and whitespace fixups v5: patch 1 rebase to latest ---- patch 1 has some general infrastructure adjustments, moving general topology functions from mkfs to libxcmd. patch 2 adds the new secondary superblock search method. Questions, comments are welcome. Thanks- Bill _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
