xfs: online repair of directories
This series employs atomic extent swapping to enable safe reconstruction of directory data. Directory repair consists of five main parts: First, we walk the existing directory to salvage as many entries as we can, by adding them as new directory entries to the repair temp dir. Second, we validate the parent pointer found in the directory. If one was not found, we scan the entire filesystem looking for a potential parent. Third, we prepare the temp file by changing the inode owner field in the directory block headers. Fourth, we use atomic extent swaps to exchange the entire data fork between the two directories. Finally, we add the ability to inactivate directories by directly freeing all the data fork blocks. This does not change anything with normal directories, since they must still unlink and shrink one entry at a time. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEUzaAxoMeQq6m2jMV+H93GTRKtOsFAmG6ltEACgkQ+H93GTRK tOse8A/+KlrlxjGQh3BGYIWWtmABPptTIjChSz2fAfrRU8HUWgOx4KbOKaYMIJr+ d8MHvCRJYRp2dEfL8zZmRnFSMz4E0XGRx3XivtW011NDivfx7/bjHUi5J8A9JXKI KEhUP6LhgA7hmIyMFFKKiRxTCDMSGf+Rsa32ZdufaXXf3bE0GllOeQpBD3FrbEr6 cPhtuj+Syw1Ir20lNKZgIwED3RBe24B9tol4Gnn0eOv1SOV49m+bpGQik6LTO8zW 6QKgkG2XckNdDRmHuF7NHyYS5ifQCGyIgSMll1BHFxk8LjUCz9d/yargAtpHL3kR /53o+hQsobMs1Tcv5pN0A+cxRvURnlvPSAWylcmfDNip2Bgs6JngHd56J362C1Ab F7SzMIsYUmTC1HFm2/fGN9hdFOhzNBZql+N8y13gFxuwEHZ9SEbX3gcY++pJiz8J +Vft0A4WkjHKwFRxAfcAXj0bZtIwS1xn8hhherUDhHCPl+UiRe4p9zuHQ46CmoUQ OqmF/tXzQelUZpk5Vo+2J8Z24d/6Ose6dNIiKkH1P46GiTmFBOzbjQ9rXLi130wk ehKIXk08YBUkDQ087FeMgtQgwT+Wd9gXgmVa4OVJGYwPJZsPotuRi3/RBWeqoaoe s2IFLRtXNQ94HYi7GC0vw140/d6TQWFnzTR2DrN0swFWU4fZBBs= =3uAe -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
