xfs: make struct xfs_buf_log_format have a consistent size
Increase XFS_BLF_DATAMAP_SIZE by 1 to fill in the implied padding at the end of struct xfs_buf_log_format. This makes the size consistent so that we can check it in xfs_ondisk.h, and will be needed once we start logging attribute values. On amd64 we get the following pahole: struct xfs_buf_log_format { short unsigned int blf_type; /* 0 2 */ short unsigned int blf_size; /* 2 2 */ short unsigned int blf_flags; /* 4 2 */ short unsigned int blf_len; /* 6 2 */ long long int blf_blkno; /* 8 8 */ unsigned int blf_map_size; /* 16 4 */ unsigned int blf_data_map[16]; /* 20 64 */ /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 20 bytes ago --- */ /* size: 88, cachelines: 2, members: 7 */ /* padding: 4 */ /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */ }; But on i386 we get the following: struct xfs_buf_log_format { short unsigned int blf_type; /* 0 2 */ short unsigned int blf_size; /* 2 2 */ short unsigned int blf_flags; /* 4 2 */ short unsigned int blf_len; /* 6 2 */ long long int blf_blkno; /* 8 8 */ unsigned int blf_map_size; /* 16 4 */ unsigned int blf_data_map[16]; /* 20 64 */ /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 20 bytes ago --- */ /* size: 84, cachelines: 2, members: 7 */ /* last cacheline: 20 bytes */ }; Notice how the amd64 compiler inserts 4 bytes of padding to the end of the structure to ensure 8-byte alignment. Prior to "xfs: fix memory corruption during remote attr value buffer invalidation" we would try to write to blf_data_map[17], which is harmless on amd64 but really bad on i386. This shouldn't cause any changes in the ondisk logging formats because the log code writes out the log vectors with the appropriate size for the log item's map_size, and log recovery treats the data_map array as a VLA.
