      xfs: dirent dtype presence is dependent on directory magic numbers · 367993e7
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      The determination of whether a directory entry contains a dtype
      field originally was dependent on the filesystem having CRCs
      enabled. This meant that the format for dtype beign enabled could be
      determined by checking the directory block magic number rather than
      doing a feature bit check. This was useful in that it meant that we
      didn't need to pass a struct xfs_mount around to functions that
      were already supplied with a directory block header.
      
      Unfortunately, the introduction of dtype fields into the v4
      structure via a feature bit meant this "use the directory block
      magic number" method of discriminating the dirent entry sizes is
      broken. Hence we need to convert the places that use magic number
      checks to use feature bit checks so that they work correctly and not
      by chance.
      
      The current code works on v4 filesystems only because the dirent
      size roundup covers the extra byte needed by the dtype field in the
      places where this problem occurs.

      xfs: Add read-only support for dirent filetype field · 0cb97766
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      Add support for the file type field in directory entries so that
      readdir can return the type of the inode the dirent points to to
      userspace without first having to read the inode off disk.
      
      The encoding of the type field is a single byte that is added to the
      end of the directory entry name length. For all intents and
      purposes, it appends a "hidden" byte to the name field which
      contains the type information. As the directory entry is already of
      dynamic size, helpers are already required to access and decode the
      direct entry structures.
      
      Hence the relevent extraction and iteration helpers are updated to
      understand the hidden byte.  Helpers for reading and writing the
      filetype field from the directory entries are also added. Only the
      read helpers are used by this patch.  It also adds all the code
      necessary to read the type information out of the dirents on disk.
      
      Further we add the superblock feature bit and helpers to indicate
      that we understand the on-disk format change. This is not a
      compatible change - existing kernels cannot read the new format
      successfully - so an incompatible feature flag is added. We don't
      yet allow filesystems to mount with this flag yet - that will be
      added once write support is added.
      
      Finally, the code to take the type from the VFS, convert it to an
      XFS on-disk type and put it into the xfs_name structures passed
      around is added, but the directory code does not use this field yet.
      That will be in the next patch.
