PATCH 1/2 btrfs-progs: find-root: Fix wrong generation for log tree

When searching for log tree, we should use btrfs_super_generation + 1 other than log_root_transid.

Since log_root_transid is never touched and will be deprecated soon.

It looks OK to me.
Just like the old leafsize.

And if we try to use this member again, even old progs could show it without problem.

Personally speaking, even it's in fact never used, it is still part of the specification of btrfs super blocks.

Even it's a bad decision we made a long time ago, we still need to mark it as unused, other than converting it back to "reserved".

To make it short and clear, if some member is specified in early specification, even it's never used, we still need to mark it unused and keep part of naming.

Agreed, follows the same patern as the leafsize. The superblock dump is a debugging and bug report tool, the full output is desirable.

I really don't want to get into the argument but I think we should really name unused fields unusedX where X is some number. Looking at the code in struct btrfs_root_backup we have 2 unused fields. In the superblock we have unused space which is called 'reserved'. In struct btrfs_disk_balance_args there is a field called unused, same thing for struct btrfs_balance_item.

In btrfs_inode_item we have 'reserved' field, same thing for btrfs_root_item.

So the code base is yet again highly inconsistent and looking at it there is only a single field following the __unused_original_name, so it's really the exception rather than the rule.

Again, I would argue that once a field is deprecated or in this case it has _never_ actually been used then we might as well rename it to something cryptic so as not to attach (false) meaning to it. Just my 50 cents

You're right about the inconsistent namig, for the "reserved for future use" members. This could be unified to "reserved", and even though it's in a public header I would not expect any application using the items.

The __unused_original_name is a different kind of "unused", as it became obsolete at some point and the bytes cannot be reused, unlike the reserved ones.

It's an exception because it was the first instance, there was no established rule/pattern to follow just a deliberate choice in the naming so it captures the original purpose and current status.

The log_root_transid is a again different from leafsize. I don't know what exactly you mean by the cryptic naming here, I'd rather keep the name selfexplanatory. Using 'reserved' could be misleading and somebody would want to use it for futher extensions.

The log_root_transid is a again different from leafsize. I don't know what exactly you mean by the cryptic naming here, I'd rather keep the name selfexplanatory. Using 'reserved' could be misleading and somebody would want to use it for futher extensions.

But this is exactly my point - log_root_transid can indeed be repurposed because it has _never_ been used in the code.
