Break out the xfs file attribute get and set ioctls into a separate
manpage to reduce clutter in xfsctl.

<comes up for air>

Now that we've uh, hoisted it to be a generic vfs interface,
FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR, shouldn't we be documenting it as that instead
of the (old) xfs variant?

(honestly that'd be mostly just search and replace for this patch)

Except of course XFS_IOC_FSGETXATTRA has no vfs variant.  :/

I also wonder if FS_IOC_SETFLAGS should be mentioned, and/or a
SEE_ALSO because some of the functionality overlaps?

maybe

here to keep it more compact?  Unless there's a manpage style I'm unaware
of?

also may as well keep the text for RTINHERIT and PROJINHERIT
identical other than the bit name/description.

again probably keep text same as RTINHERIT/PROJINHERIT modulo bit name.

(i.e. the others "can only be set on a directory" too right?)

Since you can't even mount that way, I suppose not ....

Documenting DAX is a bold move...

Do subdirs not inherit the flag?

No, first we document the old xfs ioctl, then we move the manpage over
to the main man-pages.git project as the vfs ioctl, and then we update
the xfsprogs manpage to say "Please refer to the VFS documentation but
in case your system doesn't have it, here you go..." :)

Oh, wow, there's actually a manpage for it...

...bleh, it's the weekend, I'll respond to the rest later.

I guess it's kind of a sad state of affairs that I'm not quite sure
if this is serious.  :)

It is, because the other implementers of this ioctl are not maintaining
the same behavior as xfs.  The first step to doing that is to document
our behaviors, and then get the code under testing.

Granted, those users (ext4/f2fs) aren't using most of the fields or
flags anyway so there's not a lot to test...

Hm, I just realized that "man ioctl_xfs_fssetxattr" would fail because
there are no redirect files.  I'll add those.

Ok I'll document and standardize the wording for all the inheritance

<shrug> We introduced an on disk flag and a behavior, now we're stuck
with it unless there's a /really/ good reason to change it.

They do.

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Query or set additional attributes associated with files in various file
+systems.
+The attributes are conveyed in a structure of the form:
+.PP
+.in +4n
+.nf
+struct fsxattr {
+	__u32         fsx_xflags;
+	__u32         fsx_extsize;

+	__u32         fsx_projid;

+	unsigned char fsx_pad[8];
+};
+.fi
+.in
+.PP
+.I fsx_xflags
+are extended flags that apply to this file.
+This field can be a combination of the following:
+
+.RS 0.4i
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_REALTIME
+The file is a realtime file.
+This bit can only be changed when the file is empty.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_PREALLOC
+The file has preallocated space.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_IMMUTABLE
+The file is immutable - it cannot be modified, deleted or renamed,
+no link can be created to this file and no data can be written to the
+file.
+Only the superuser or a process possessing the CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE
+capability can set or clear this flag.
+If this flag is set before a
+.B FS_IOC_SETXATTR
+call and would not be cleared by the call, then no other attributes can be
+changed and
+.B EPERM
+will be returned.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_APPEND
+The file is append-only - it can only be open in append mode for
+writing.
+Only the superuser or a process possessing the CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE
+capability can set or clear this flag.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_SYNC
+All writes to the file are synchronous.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_NOATIME
+When the file is accessed, its atime record is not modified.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_NODUMP
+The file should be skipped by backup utilities.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_RTINHERIT
+Realtime inheritance bit - new files created in the directory
+will be automatically realtime, and new directories created in
+the directory will inherit the inheritance bit.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_PROJINHERIT
+Project inheritance bit - new files and directories created in
+the directory will inherit the parents project ID.
+New directories also inherit the project inheritance bit.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_NOSYMLINKS
+Can only be set on a directory and disallows creation of
+symbolic links in that directory.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_EXTSIZE
+Extent size bit - if a basic extent size value is set on the file
+then the allocator will allocate in multiples of the set size for
+this file (see
+.B fsx_extsize
+below).
+This flag can only be set on a file if it is empty.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_EXTSZINHERIT
+Extent size inheritance bit - new files and directories created in
+the directory will inherit the parents basic extent size value (see
+.B fsx_extsize
+below).
+Can only be set on a directory.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_NODEFRAG
+No defragment file bit - the file should be skipped during a defragmentation
+operation. When applied to a directory, new files and directories created will
+inherit the no\-defrag bit.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_FILESTREAM
+Filestream allocator bit - allows a directory to reserve an allocation group
+for exclusive use by files created within that directory.
+Files being written in other directories will not use the same allocation group
+and so files within different directories will not interleave extents on disk.
+The reservation is only active while files are being created and written into
+the directory.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_DAX
+If the filesystem lives on directly accessible persistent memory, reads and
+writes to this file will go straight to the persistent memory, bypassing the
+page cache.
+A file cannot be reflinked and have the
+.BR FS_XFLAG_DAX
+set at the same time.
+That is to say that DAX files cannot share blocks.
+If this flag is set on a directory, files created within that directory will
+have this flag set.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_COWEXTSIZE
+Copy on Write Extent size bit - if a CoW extent size value is set on the file,
+the allocator will allocate extents for staging a copy on write operation
+in multiples of the set size for this file (see
+.B fsx_cowextsize
+below).
+If the CoW extent size is set on a directory, then new file and directories
+created in the directory will inherit the parent's CoW extent size value.
+.TP
+.B FS_XFLAG_HASATTR
+The file has extended attributes associated with it.
+.RE
+.PP
+.PD
+
+.PP
+.I fsx_extsize
+is the preferred extent allocation size for data blocks mapped to this file,
+in units of filesystem blocks.
+If this value is zero, the filesystem will choose a default option, which
+is currently zero.
+If
+.B XFS_IOC_FSSETXATTR
+is called with
+.B FS_XFLAG_EXTSIZE
+set in
+.I fsx_xflags
+and this field is zero, the XFLAG will be cleared instead.
+.PP
+.I fsx_nextents
+is the number of data extents in this file.
+If
+.B XFS_IOC_FSGETXATTRA
+was used, then this is the number of extended attribute extents in the file.
+.PP
+.I fsx_projid
+is the project ID of this file.
+.PP
+.I fsx_cowextsize
+is the preferred extent allocation size for copy on write operations
+targeting this file, in units of filesystem blocks.
+If this field is zero, the filesystem will choose a default option,
+which is currently 128 filesystem blocks.
+If
+.B XFS_IOC_FSSETXATTR
+is called with
+.B FS_XFLAG_COWEXTSIZE
+set in
+.I fsx_xflags
+and this field is zero, the XFLAG will be cleared instead.
+
+.PP
+.I fsx_pad
+must be zeroed.
+
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On error, \-1 is returned, and
+.I errno
+is set to indicate the error.
+.PP
+.SH ERRORS
+Error codes can be one of, but are not limited to, the following:
+.TP
+.B EACCESS
+Caller does not have sufficient access to change the attributes.
+.TP
+.B EFAULT
+The kernel was not able to copy into the userspace buffer.
+.TP
+.B EFSBADCRC
+Metadata checksum validation failed while performing the query.
+.TP
+.B EFSCORRUPTED
+Metadata corruption was encountered while performing the query.
+.TP
+.B EINVAL
+One of the arguments was not valid.
+.TP
+.B EIO
+An I/O error was encountered while performing the query.
+.TP
+.B ENOMEM
+There was insufficient memory to perform the query.
+.TP
+.B EPERM
+Caller did not have permission to change the attributes.
+.SH CONFORMING TO
+This API is implemented by the ext4, xfs, btrfs, and f2fs filesystems on the
+Linux kernel.
+Not all fields may be understood by filesystems other than xfs.
