When running xfs_restore with a non-rtdev dump,
it will ignore any rtinherit flags on the destination
and send I/O to the metadata region.

Instead, detect rtinherit on the destination XFS fileystem root inode
and use that to override the incoming inode flags.

Original version of this patch missed some branches so multiple
invocations of xfsrestore onto the same fs caused
the rtinherit bit to get re-removed. There could be some
additional edge cases in non-realtime to realtime workflows so
the outstanding question would be: is it worth supporting?

Changes in v2:
* Changed root inode bulkstat to just ioctl to the destdir inode

Thanks for that fixup (though comment still says "root" FWIW)

Thinking about this some more, I'm really kind of wondering how this
should all be expected to work.  There are several scenarios here,
and "is this file rt?" is prescribed in different ways - either in
the dump itself, or on the target fs via inheritance flags...

(NB: rt is not the only inheritable flag, so would we need to handle
the others?)

non-rt fs dump, restored onto non-rt fs
	- obviously this is fine

rt fs dump, restored onto rt fs
	- obviously this is fine as well

rt fs dump, restored onto non-rt fs
	- this works, with errors - all rt files become non-rt
	- nothing else to do here other than fail outright

non-rt fs dump, restored into rt fs dir/fs with "rtinherit" set
	- this one is your case
	- today it's ignored, files stay non-rt
	- you're suggesting it be honored and files turned into rt

the one case that's not handled here is "what if I want to have my
realtime dump with realtime files restored onto an rt-capable fs, but
turned into regular files?" 

So your patch gives us one mechanism (restore non-rt files as
rt files) but not the converse (restore rt files as non-rt files) -
I'm not sure if that matters, but the symmetry bugs me a little.

I'm trying to decide if dump/restore is truly the right way to
migrate files from non-rt to rt or vice versa, TBH.  Maybe dchinner
or djwong will have thoughts as well...

I'll worry more about the details of the patch after we decide if this
is the right behavior in the first place...

This should just work, without errors or warnings.

Current filesystem policy should override the policy in dump image
as the dump image may contain an invalid policy....

*nod*

My take on this is that we need to decide which allocation policy to
use - the kernel policy or the dump file policy - in the different
situations. It's a simple, easy to document and understand solution.

At minimum, if there's a mismatch between rtdev/non-rtdev between
dump and restore, then restore should not try to restore or clear rt
flags at all. i.e the rt flags in the dump image should be
considered invalid in this situation and masked out in the restore
process. This prevents errors from being reported during restore,
and it does "the right thing" according to how the user has
configured the destination directory. i.e.  if the destdir has the
rtinherit bit set and there's a rtdev present, the kernel policy
will cause all file data that is restored to be allocated on the
rtdev. Otherwise the kernel will place it (correctly) on the data
dev.

In the case where both have rtdevs, but you want to restore to
ignore the dump file rtdev policy, we really only need to add a CLI
option to say "ignore rt flags" and that then allows the kernel
policy to dictate how the restored files are placed in the same way
that having a rtdev mismatch does.

This is simple, consistent, fulfils the requirements and should have
no hidden surprises for users....

Cheers,

Dave.

I said errors but I meant warnings:

xfsrestore: restoring non-directory files
xfsrestore: WARNING: attempt to set extended attributes (xflags 0x80000001, extsize = 0x0, projid = 0x0) of rtdir/bar failed: Invalid argument
xfsrestore: WARNING: attempt to set extended attributes (xflags 0x80000001, extsize = 0x0, projid = 0x0) of rtdir/baz failed: Invalid argument
xfsrestore: restore complete: 0 seconds elapsed

and yeah, probably should not be noisy there.

The trick is that we don't have a "no-rt" flag we can set on a dir,
so there is no "files in this dir ar not rt" policy to follow.

Sounds reasonable.  So the CLI flag would say "ignore RT info in the
dump, and write files according to the destination fs policy?"
I think that makes sense.

Now: do we need to do the same for all inheritable flags?  projid,
extsize, etc?  I think we probably do.

I disagree. These things are all supported on all destination
filesystems, unlike the rtdev. They are also things that can be
changed after the fact, unlike rtdev allocation policy. i.e. rtdev
has to be set /before/ restore, just about everything else can be
set or reset after the fact....

Cheers,

Dave.

Any suggested flag name/prefix for this? Last i checked all the single

I suggest --preserve-xflags=<same letters as xfs_io lsattr command>

What's the implication? That we do not copy any xflags bits unless you
include them in --preserve-xflags?
The defaults of this would be all the available fields.

That still leaves the destination needing a xflag bit like realtime
and the source not having it...Maybe
xfsdump needs --preserve-xflags and xfsrestore needs --apply-xflags ?
That will catch
all the cases and the solution is just an and/xor on the
outgoing/incoming bsp_xflags field:

 * realtime->realtime (--preserve-xflags=all --apply-xflags=none)
 * non-realtime->realtime (--preserve-xflags=all --apply-xflags=t)
 * non-realtime->non-realtime (--preserve-xflags=all --apply-xflags=none)
 * realtime->non-realtime (--preserve-xflags=all-but-t)

Thanks!

I was clearly confusing, my apologies. :/

What I should've said more explicitly was that xfsdump continues to save
all the xflags as it does now, and that we should consider adding a new
cli option to xfsrestore to preserve certain xflags from the underlying
fs with a new --preserve-xflags= option.  Maybe it should be
--preserve-dest-xflags to make it clear that the xflags of the
destination are overriding the dump.

For your "create dump on non-rt fs and restore to rt dev on rt fs" use
case, you'd do....

# xfsdump -f /dumpfile /oldfs
# mkfs.xfs -r rtdev=/dev/sdX -d rtinherit=1 /dev/sdY
# mount /dev/sdY /newfs
# xfsrestore -f /dumpfile --preserve-dest-xflags=t /newfs
