Viacheslav Dubeyko 24e17a29cf hfsplus: fix volume corruption issue for generic/073
The xfstests' test-case generic/073 leaves HFS+ volume
in corrupted state:

sudo ./check generic/073
FSTYP -- hfsplus
PLATFORM -- Linux/x86_64 hfsplus-testing-0001 6.17.0-rc1+ #4 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed Oct 1 15:02:44 PDT 2025
MKFS_OPTIONS -- /dev/loop51
MOUNT_OPTIONS -- /dev/loop51 /mnt/scratch

generic/073 _check_generic_filesystem: filesystem on /dev/loop51 is inconsistent
(see XFSTESTS-2/xfstests-dev/results//generic/073.full for details)

The test is doing these steps on final phase:

mv $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir_1/bar $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir_2/bar
$XFS_IO_PROG -c "fsync" $SCRATCH_MNT/testdir_1
$XFS_IO_PROG -c "fsync" $SCRATCH_MNT/foo

So, we move file bar from testdir_1 into testdir_2 folder. It means that HFS+
logic decrements the number of entries in testdir_1 and increments number of
entries in testdir_2. Finally, we do fsync only for testdir_1 and foo but not
for testdir_2. As a result, this is the reason why fsck.hfsplus detects the
volume corruption afterwards.

This patch fixes the issue by means of adding the
hfsplus_cat_write_inode() call for old_dir and new_dir in
hfsplus_rename() after the successful ending of
hfsplus_rename_cat(). This method makes modification of in-core
inode objects for old_dir and new_dir but it doesn't save these
modifications in Catalog File's entries. It was expected that
hfsplus_write_inode() will save these modifications afterwards.
However, because generic/073 does fsync only for testdir_1 and foo
then testdir_2 modification hasn't beed saved into Catalog File's
entry and it was flushed without this modification. And it was
detected by fsck.hfsplus. Now, hfsplus_rename() stores in Catalog
File all modified entries and correct state of Catalog File will
be flushed during hfsplus_file_fsync() call. Finally, it makes
fsck.hfsplus happy.

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 reStructuredText 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.
