Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 03/34] fs: add a generic emergency read-only state
Date: Fri, 30 Oct 2026 16:09:49 +0000 [thread overview]

In-Reply-To: <20261029-work-fs-sb_rdonly-v2-3-2f44f64f0b66@kernel.org>
> ext4 and f2fs don't set SB_RDONLY after errors anymore and refuse
> modifications themselves. Doing that in all the other filesystems means
> the same checks in ->open, ->setattr, ->fsync, the directory and quota
> operations and ->reconfigure everywhere. Jan suggested a flag in the
> superblock instead so the VFS can do it once (cf. [1]).

> So add sb->s_state with SB_STATE_EMERGENCY_RO. It's only ever set and

> sb_set_emergency_ro() where it used to set SB_RDONLY and the VFS refuses
> modifications wherever sb_rdonly() would:
