Subject: Re: fsck mode halfway between --fix-fixable and --rebuild-tree ?

Hi,

One other idea I've had yesterday to speed up --rebuild-tree on a big
full disk...

Reiserfsck starts with a bitmap of blocks which might hold B-tree nodes.
The idea is to walk through the existing tree and clear those bits in the
bitmap which actually belong to some file -- those cannot hold metadata.

For extra safety, only consider fiels which haven't been modified for
<insert_date_here>. Abort if you find a tree block which points to
a block whose bit is not set -- either because it never was set in the
first place (then you probably should use -S), or because it points into
a file (then you should set the date back, or use the original mode).

Thoughts? Price?  ;-)
