Description Menanteau Guy 2016-02-08 13:09:29 UTC 
I tried to build qemu-2.5.0-4 on fedora for release f24 arch ppc64le and I got a redefinition problem of "struct fsxattr"

You can fin the koji scratch build at http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3121531

Definitions are in /usr/include/linux/fs.h and /usr/include/xfs/xfs_fs.h
comming from kernel-4.5.0-0.rc1.git2.1 and xfsprogs-4.3.0-1
Comment 1 Cole Robinson 2016-02-09 15:52:03 UTC 
This kernel commit seems to be the culprit:

commit 334e580a6f97e2e84d1c19a8679603956acaa622
Author: Dave Chinner <dchinner>
Date:   Mon Jan 4 16:44:15 2016 +1100

    fs: XFS_IOC_FS[SG]SETXATTR to FS_IOC_FS[SG]ETXATTR promotion

Moves the fsxattr definition from xfs_fs.h to fs.h, but xfsprogs is still shipping the old header. Not really sure what the fix is, moving to kernel for further triage
Comment 2 Josh Boyer 2016-02-09 17:16:07 UTC 
Dave, Eric, is this something xfsprogs needs to cope with?
Comment 3 Eric Sandeen 2016-02-09 17:28:16 UTC 
yep, I guess so.

We can probably wrap it in

#ifndef FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR

in userspace, because that's the new ioctl that came after the "hoisting"

As a short term workaround, if you can define HAS_FSXATTR for the qemu build, that should keep the current xfsprogs definition out of it:

#ifndef HAVE_FSXATTR
struct fsxattr {
...
Comment 4 Eric Sandeen 2016-02-09 17:41:52 UTC 
Perhaps the kernel should also #define HAVE_FSXATTR to make existing/older xfsprogs headers skip the definition...

I've sent a patch for xfsprogs to guard in the other direction.
Comment 5 Cole Robinson 2016-02-22 15:54:08 UTC 
any timeline for a build?
Comment 6 Jan Kurik 2016-02-24 14:26:31 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 24 development cycle.
Changing version to '24'.

More information and reason for this action is here:

Comment 7 Paolo Bonzini 2016-03-01 12:19:03 UTC 
I'm fixing this in QEMU by removing the xfsprogs dependency; on modern kernels fallocate does everything that QEMU used xfsctl for.
