Subject: [PATCH 09/48] xfs: factor out xlog_recover_validate_ophdr()
Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2026 17:00:59 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261013060204.3138690-10-dgc@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261013060204.3138690-1-dgc@kernel.org>

Factor the existing operation header checks out of
xlog_recover_process_ophdr() into a dedicated helper to centralise ophdr
validation. Later patches add validation of the remaining ophdr fields here.
The ASSERT(0) and WARN_ON(1) are dropped as they add nothing over the logged
message and returned error, and they fire on expected corrupt input.
