Rather you want -EFSCORRUPTED, at least if I understand the recent patches to ext2/ext4/f2fs/xfs/...
Thanks for your reply and noticing this. :)
Yes, as I talked with you about read_mapping_page() in a xfs related topic earlier, I think I fully understand what returns here.
I actually had some concern about that before sending out this patch. You know the status is PG_uptodate is not set and PG_error is set here.
But we cannot know it is actually a disk read error or due to corrupted images (due to lack of page flags or some status, and I think it could be a waste of page structure space for such corrupted image or disk error)...
And some people also like propagate errors from insiders... (and they could argue about err = -EFSCORRUPTED as well..)
I'd like hear your suggestion about this after my words above? still return -EFSCORRUPTED?
I don't think it matters whether it's due to a disk error or a corrupted image. We can't read the directory entry, so we should probably return -EFSCORRUPTED. Thinking about it some more, read_mapping_page() can also return -ENOMEM, so it should probably look something like this:
err = 0; if (dentry_page == ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM)) err = -ENOMEM; else if (IS_ERR(dentry_page)) { errln("fail to readdir of logical block %u of nid %llu", i, EROFS_V(dir)->nid); err = -EFSCORRUPTED; }
if (err) break;
