Subject: [PATCH] xfs: require a relatively recent V5 filesystem for LARP mode
Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2023 22:07:39 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230901050739.GO28186@frogsfrogsfrogs> (raw)

From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org>

While reviewing the FIEXCHANGE code in XFS, I realized that the function
that enables logged xattrs doesn't actually check that the superblock
has a LOG_INCOMPAT feature bit field.  Add a check to refuse the
operation if we don't have a V5 filesystem...

...but on second though, let's require either reflink or rmap so that we
only have to deal with LARP mode on relatively /modern/ kernel.  4.14 is
about as far back as I feel like going.

Seeing as LARP is a debugging-only option anyway, this isn't likely to
affect any real users.

Fixes: d9c61ccb3b09 ("xfs: move xfs_attr_use_log_assist out of xfs_log.c")
Really-Fixes: f3f36c893f26 ("xfs: Add xfs_attr_set_deferred and xfs_attr_remove_deferred")
