Last modified: 2011-05-19 08:42:24 EDT
Created attachment 474556 [details] Patch to allow quota usage update through quotactl Allow gfs2 to update quota usage through the quotactl syscall so that quotacheck can be performed through the userland quota tools.

Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release.
posted above patch to rhkernel-list for inclusion in RHEL6.1. I thought I had this patch posted for 6.1 already, turns out that's not the case :(. It's upstream though.
Created attachment 474899 [details] updated patch The only thing different is the addition of the following definitions to include/linux/dqblk_xfs.h. This was part of a series of updates to xfs-quota-related code upstream by Christoph. It didn't look to me that anything other than these symbols (FS_DQ_BCOUNT, in particular) were required for GFS2 quotacheck to operate correctly. /* + * Accounting values. These can only be set for filesystem with + * non-transactional quotas that require quotacheck(8) in userspace. + */ +#define FS_DQ_BCOUNT (1<<12) +#define FS_DQ_ICOUNT (1<<13) +#define FS_DQ_RTBCOUNT (1<<14) +#define FS_DQ_ACCT_MASK (FS_DQ_BCOUNT | FS_DQ_ICOUNT | FS_DQ_RTBCOUNT) + posted this patch to rhkernel-list for inclusion in rhel6.1
Patch(es) available on kernel-2.6.32-112.el6
Verified that we can set quotas using setquota which uses the quotactl() system call.
