Inode resource usage is tracked in the quota metadata. Repairing a file might change the resources used by that file, which means that we need to attach dquots to the file that we're examining before accessing anything in the file protected by the ILOCK. However, there's a twist: a dquot cache miss requires the dquot to be read in from the quota file, during which we drop the ILOCK on the file being examined. This means that we *must* try to attach the dquots before taking the ILOCK. Therefore, dquots must be attached to files in the scrub setup function. If doing so yields corruption errors (or unknown dquot errors), we instead clear the quotachecked status, which will cause a quotacheck on next mount. A future series will make this trigger live quotacheck. While we're here, change the xrep_ino_dqattach function to use the unlocked dqattach functions so that we avoid cycling the ILOCK if the inode already has dquots attached. This makes the naming and locking requirements consistent with the rest of the filesystem. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
