The struct xfs_agfl v5 header was originally introduced with unexpected padding that caused the AGFL to operate with one less slot than intended. The header has since been packed, but the fix left an incompatibility for users who upgrade from an old kernel with the unpacked header to a newer kernel with the packed header while the AGFL happens to wrap around the end. The newer kernel recognizes one extra slot at the physical end of the AGFL that the previous kernel did not. The new kernel will eventually attempt to allocate a block from that slot, which contains invalid data, and cause a crash.
This condition can be detected by comparing the active range of the AGFL to the count. While this detects a padding mismatch, it can also trigger false positives for unrelated flcount corruption. Since we cannot distinguish a size mismatch due to padding from unrelated corruption, we can't trust the AGFL enough to simply repopulate the empty slot.
Instead, avoid unnecessarily complex detection logic and and use a solution that can handle any form of flcount corruption that slips through read verifiers: distrust the entire AGFL and reset it to an empty state. Any valid blocks within the AGFL are intentionally leaked. This requires xfs_repair to rectify (which was already necessary based on the state the AGFL was found in). The reset mitigates the side effect of the padding mismatch problem from a filesystem crash to a free space accounting inconsistency. The generic approach also means that this patch can be safely backported to kernels with or without a packed struct xfs_agfl.
Check the AGF for an invalid freelist count on initial read from disk. If detected, set a flag on the xfs_perag to indicate that a reset is required before the AGFL can be used. In the first transaction that attempts to use a flagged AGFL, reset it to empty, warn the user about the inconsistency and allow the freelist fixup code to repopulate the AGFL with new blocks. The xfs_perag flag is cleared to eliminate the need for repeated checks on each block allocation operation.
