Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y 3/3] xfs: use null daddr for unset first bad log block
Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2026 21:33:35 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260718013335.2621394-3-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260718013335.2621394-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Yousef Alhouseen <alhouseenyousef@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit cc9af5e461ea5f6e37738f3f1e41c45a9b7f45d6 ]

xlog_do_recovery_pass() may return before setting first_bad.  The caller
must distinguish that case from an error at a valid log block, including
block zero after the log wraps.

Initialize first_bad to XFS_BUF_DADDR_NULL and test it explicitly before
treating the error as a torn write.

Fixes: 7088c4136fa1 ("xfs: detect and trim torn writes during log recovery")
