ocfs2: detect released suballocator BG for fh_to_[dentry|parent]
After ocfs2 gained the ability to reclaim suballocator free block group
(BGs), a suballocator block group may be released. This change causes the
xfstest case generic/426 to fail.
generic/426 expects return value -ENOENT or -ESTALE, but the current code
triggers -EROFS.
Call stack before ocfs2 gained the ability to reclaim bg:
ocfs2_fh_to_dentry //or ocfs2_fh_to_parent
ocfs2_get_dentry
+ ocfs2_test_inode_bit
| ocfs2_test_suballoc_bit
| + ocfs2_read_group_descriptor //Since ocfs2 never releases the bg,
| | //the bg block was always found.
| + *res = ocfs2_test_bit //unlink was called, and the bit is zero
|
+ if (!set) //because the above *res is 0
status = -ESTALE //the generic/426 expected return value
Current call stack that triggers -EROFS:
ocfs2_get_dentry
ocfs2_test_inode_bit
ocfs2_test_suballoc_bit
ocfs2_read_group_descriptor
+ if reading a released bg, validation fails and triggers -EROFS
How to fix:
Since the read BG is already released, we must avoid triggering -EROFS.
With this commit, we use ocfs2_read_hint_group_descriptor() to detect the
released BG block. This approach quietly handles this type of error and
returns -EINVAL, which triggers the caller's existing conversion path to
-ESTALE.
