    xfs: Fix file type directory corruption for btree directories · 03754234
    Jan Kara authored
    Users have occasionally reported that file type for some directory
    entries is wrong. This mostly happened after updating libraries some
    libraries. After some debugging the problem was traced down to
    xfs_dir2_node_replace(). The function uses args->filetype as a file type
    to store in the replaced directory entry however it also calls
    xfs_da3_node_lookup_int() which will store file type of the current
    directory entry in args->filetype. Thus we fail to change file type of a
    directory entry to a proper type.
    
    Fix the problem by storing new file type in a local variable before
    calling xfs_da3_node_lookup_int().
