Merge tag 'scrub-directory-tree-6.10_2024-04-23' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/djwong/xfs-linux into xfs-6.10-mergeC xfs: detect and correct directory tree problems Historically, checking the tree-ness of the directory tree structure has not been complete. Cycles of subdirectories break the tree properties, as do subdirectories with multiple parents. It's easy enough for DFS to detect problems as long as one of the participants is reachable from the root, but this technique cannot find unconnected cycles. Directory parent pointers change that, because we can discover all of these problems from a simple walk from a subdirectory towards the root. For each child we start with, if the walk terminates without reaching the root, we know the path is disconnected and ought to be attached to the lost and found. If we find ourselves, we know this is a cycle and can delete an incoming edge. If we find multiple paths to the root, we know to delete an incoming edge. Even better, once we've finished walking paths, we've identified the good ones and know which other path(s) to remove. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
