xfs: don't ever put nlink > 0 inodes on the unlinked list When XFS creates an O_TMPFILE file, the inode is created with nlink = 1, put on the unlinked list, and then the VFS sets nlink = 0 in d_tmpfile. If we crash before anything logs the inode (it's dirty incore but the vfs doesn't tell us it's dirty so we never log that change), the iunlink processing part of recovery will then explode with a pile of: XFS: Assertion failed: VFS_I(ip)->i_nlink == 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_log_recover.c, line: 5072 Worse yet, since nlink is nonzero, the inodes also don't get cleaned up and they just leak until the next xfs_repair run. Therefore, change xfs_iunlink to require that inodes being put on the unlinked list have nlink == 0, change the tmpfile callers to instantiate nodes that way, and set the nlink to 1 just prior to calling d_tmpfile. Fix the comment for xfs_iunlink while we're at it. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
