    xfs: xfs_showargs() reports group *and* project quotas enabled · 988abe40
    Alex Elder authored
    If you enable group or project quotas on an XFS file system, then the
    mount table presented through /proc/self/mounts erroneously shows
    that both options are in effect for the file system.  The root of
    the problem is some bad logic in the xfs_showargs() function, which
    is used to format the file system type-specific options in effect
    for a file system.
    
    The problem originated in this GIT commit:
        Move platform specific mount option parse out of core XFS code

    For XFS quotas, project and group quota management are mutually
    exclusive--only one can be in effect at a time.  There are two
    parts to managing quotas:  aggregating usage information; and
    enforcing limits.  It is possible to have a quota in effect
    (aggregating usage) but not enforced.
    
    These features are recorded on an XFS mount point using these flags:
        XFS_PQUOTA_ACCT - Project quotas are aggregated
        XFS_GQUOTA_ACCT - Group quotas are aggregated
        XFS_OQUOTA_ENFD - Project/group quotas are enforced
    
    The code in error is in fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_super.c:
    
            if (mp->m_qflags & (XFS_PQUOTA_ACCT|XFS_OQUOTA_ENFD))
                    seq_puts(m, "," MNTOPT_PRJQUOTA);
            else if (mp->m_qflags & XFS_PQUOTA_ACCT)
                    seq_puts(m, "," MNTOPT_PQUOTANOENF);
    
            if (mp->m_qflags & (XFS_GQUOTA_ACCT|XFS_OQUOTA_ENFD))
                    seq_puts(m, "," MNTOPT_GRPQUOTA);
            else if (mp->m_qflags & XFS_GQUOTA_ACCT)
                    seq_puts(m, "," MNTOPT_GQUOTANOENF);
    
    The problem is that XFS_OQUOTA_ENFD will be set in mp->m_qflags
    if either group or project quotas are enforced, and as a result
    both MNTOPT_PRJQUOTA and MNTOPT_GRPQUOTA will be shown as mount
    options.
