hi
after upgrading from 4.9.205 to 4.9.208, I get errors on two different
reiserfs filesystems when doing cp -a (the chown part seems to fail) and
on other occasions:
kernel: REISERFS warning (device sda1): jdm-20004 reiserfs_delete_xattrs: Couldn't delete all xattrs (-95)
kernel: REISERFS warning (device sdc1): jdm-20004 reiserfs_delete_xattrs: Couldn't delete all xattrs (-95)
This behaviour disappeared after a downgrade to 4.9.205.
I understand there have been changes to the file system code but I'm not
sure they affect reiserfs, e.g.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205433
Any Idea?
Regards,
Michael Brunnbauer

Looks to me like 4.9.207 contains reiserfs changes.

Yes, 'cp -a' returns errors and files are owned by root instead of the correct
user after copying as root.

Looks like a regression from commit 60e4cf67a582 "reiserfs: fix extended
attributes on the root directory". We are getting -EOPNOTSUPP from
reiserfs_for_each_xattr() likely originally from open_xa_root(). Previously
we were returning -ENODATA from there which error reiserfs_for_each_xattr()
converted to 0. I don't understand reiserfs xattrs enough to quickly tell
what should actually be happening after the Jeff's change - naively I'd
think we should just silence the bogus warning in case of EOPNOTSUPP. Jeff,
can you have a look?
Also Michael, I'd like to clarify: Does 'cp -a' return any error or is it
just that the kernel is spewing these annoying warnings? Because from the
code reading I'd think that it is only the kernel spewing errors but
userspace should be fine...

Hi Michael -
It looks like something must've gone sideways with the backport since
5.5-rc6 works as expected. I'll dig into it a bit.

Nevermind. I just wasn't reproducing properly. Jan's analysis is
right. The -EOPNOTSUPP change is required so that we get the right
error when explicit xattr operations are performed on a file system
without them. Prior to this change, we'd get -EOPNOTSUPP by sb->s_xattr
being NULL.
reiserfs_for_each_xattr needs to handle this the same way we already
handle -ENODATA.

This error occurs when extended attributes are not enabled on the file
system *and* the module is not built with extended attributes enabled.
I've sent out the fix for it just now.

Hi Jeff,
Can you share the patch with us for testing? I haven't seen this hit mainline
yet.
Thanks,

Sure. I posted it to the reiserfs-devel list last week and Jan Kara
pulled it into his tree for submission to mainline.
It's in linux-next:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/fs/reiserfs?id=394440d469413fa9b74f88a11f144d76017221f2
