From 921c30674e9bc719e7c2747deb6deb04be2adb4b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Darrick J. Wong" Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2017 11:35:22 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] db: increase metadump's default overly long extent discard threshold Back in 88b8e1d6d7 ("Make xfs_metadump more robust against bad data"), metadump grew the ability to ignore a directory extent if it was longer than 20 blocks. Presumably this was to protect metadump from dumping absurdly long extents resulting from bmbt corruption, but it's certainly possible to create a directory with an extent longer than 20 blocks. Hilariously, the discards happen with no warning unless the caller explicitly set -w. This was raised to 1000 blocks in 7431d134fe8 ("Increase default maximum extent size for xfs_metadump when copying..."), but it's still possible to create a directory with an extent longer than 1000 blocks. Increase the threshold to MAXEXTLEN blocks because it's totally valid for the filesystem to create extents up to that length. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
