Subject: [PATCH 0/4] ocfs2: add online file check feature

When there are errors in the ocfs2 filesystem,
they are usually accompanied by the inode number which caused the error.
This inode number would be the input to fixing the file.
One of these options could be considered:
A file in the sys filesytem which would accept inode numbers.
This could be used to communication back what has to be fixed or is fixed.
You could write:
$# echo "CHECK <inode>" > /sys/fs/ocfs2/devname/filecheck
or
$# echo "FIX <inode>" > /sys/fs/ocfs2/devname/filecheck

Subject: [PATCH 1/4] ocfs2: export ocfs2_kset for online file check

Export ocfs2_kset object from ocfs2_stackglue kernel module,
then online file check code will create the related sysfiles
under ocfs2_kset object.

Subject: [PATCH 2/4] ocfs2: sysfile interfaces for online file check

Implement online file check sysfile interfaces, e.g.
how to create the related sysfile according to device name,
how to display/handle file check request from the sysfile.

Subject: Re: [Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 0/4] ocfs2: add online file check feature

Hi Gang,
Thank you and Goldwyn for posting this feature as well as its framework.
This patch set tries to fix inode related errors such as block no, valid
flag, generation, metaecc, etc. I think it may fit some cases but not all.
For example, valid flag not set readonly may be caused by an inode with
two entries, so I think it is not right to just reset it.
Moreover, in our environment, most readonly cases we have encountered are
related gd and entent tree/block. So do you have any consideration about
these cases?
For more details about gd and entent tree/block readonly cases, please
refer the previous mails:

Joseph

Subject: Re: [Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 0/4] ocfs2: add online file check feature

Hi Joseph,

Thank for your reviewing.
Online file check feature will try to check/fix some independent block corruption problems.
Since these operations are under online file system, the features are limited, otherwise, we have
to use FSCK tools after file system is unmounted (e.g. some inconsistent meta-data problem).
This online file check will be implemented by some stages.
First, we give a online file check framework and inode block check.
Second, we will add other kinds of block check/fix, e.g.
Add checks/fixes for directory blocks.
Add checks/fixes for extent_block errors/corruption
Add checks/fixes directory indexing. fsck currently abandons the tree and rebuilds a new index, we can do the same.
Add checks/fixes for xattr blocks
Add checks/fixes for refcount blocks
Finally, add system file checks (journal, local_alloc etc).
Anyway, this feature only can address some independent problems, since we cannot block other file access when file check is running.
For more serious problem, have to stop file system and run FSCK to chech/fix step by step.

Thanks
Gang

This is a userspace feature so it should have user documentation.
Documentation/filesystems/ocfs2.txt is presumably the appropriate
place.

And the availability of the complete user documentation will make the
review of this patchset more productive.
