mainlining shenanigans
If the inode has the compress flag, it will fail to use
'chattr -c +m' to remove its compress flag and tag no compress flag.
However, the same command will be successful when executed again,
as shown below:
$ touch foo.txt
$ chattr +c foo.txt
$ chattr -c +m foo.txt
chattr: Invalid argument while setting flags on foo.txt
$ chattr -c +m foo.txt
$ f2fs_io getflags foo.txt
get a flag on foo.txt ret=0, flags=nocompression,inline_data
Fix this by removing some checks in f2fs_setflags_common()
that do not affect the original logic. I go through all the
possible scenarios, and the results are as follows. Bold is
the only thing that has changed.
+---------------+-----------+-----------+----------+
| | file flags |
+ command +-----------+-----------+----------+
| | no flag | compr | nocompr |
+---------------+-----------+-----------+----------+
| chattr +c | compr | compr | -EINVAL |
| chattr -c | no flag | no flag | nocompr |
| chattr +m | nocompr | -EINVAL | nocompr |
| chattr -m | no flag | compr | no flag |
| chattr +c +m | -EINVAL | -EINVAL | -EINVAL |
| chattr +c -m | compr | compr | compr |
| chattr -c +m | nocompr | *nocompr* | nocompr |
| chattr -c -m | no flag | no flag | no flag |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
