Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] repair: fixes for 3.2.0-rc2

Hi folks,

A couple of fixes identified for xfs_repair follow. The first is a regression introduced by the discontiguous buffer support in the prefetch code, which Eric Sandeen found. I've written a slightly different fix for it than Eric did, but the concept for the fix is all Eric's work.

The second patch is not actually a regression, but the filesystem that triggered the above regression can't actually be repaired in a sane amount of time because of an array insertion algorithm with exponential cost. It's trivial to fix, and it means xfs_repair can actually run to completion quickly rather than burn CPU for hours getting nothing done.

These fixes mean I'll probably release a 3.2.0-rc3 once they've been reviewed and go into the tree....

Cheers,

Dave.
