Remove xfs_check for 3.2.0?
I think we had stated removal in June 2014, but it seems close enough.
Should xfs_check be removed prior to 3.2.0's release?

I'd prefer to do it slightly later than earlier.
As it is, 3.2.0 is really in the "critical fixes only" stage - like that repair prefetch bug. So apart from fixes like that, I don't want to be changing things right now.
Cheers,
Dave.

*shrug* ok. Let a thousand "hey my xfs_check OOM'd" emails blossom! :)
FWIW, I did not have time to work on that prefetch bug yet today. :(

Why not replace it by a script that simply states that it's useless and to run xfs_repair -n instead? It has been completely useless for the best part of the past ten years... This way you don't remove it but you'll sort of fix it :)

xfs_check is already just a script that wraps xfs_db.
However, there's all the man page updates, all the external documentation needs to be updated, etc. IOWs, it's not just a case of a simply patching out the xfs_check script....
Cheers,
Dave.
