Команды (Commands)

Many commands have extensive online help. Use the help command for more details on any command.

a See the addr command.

ablock filoff Set current address to the offset filoff (a filesystem block number) in the attribute area of the current inode.

addr [field-expression] Set current address to the value of the field-expression. This is used to "follow" a reference in one structure to the object being referred to. If no argument is given, the current address is printed.

agf [agno] Set current address to the AGF block for allocation group agno. If no argument is given, use the current allocation group.

agfl [agno] Set current address to the AGFL block for allocation group agno. If no argument is given, use the current allocation group.

agi [agno] Set current address to the AGI block for allocation group agno. If no argument is given, use the current allocation group.

agresv [agno] Displays the length, free block count, per-AG reservation size, and per-AG reservation usage for a given AG. If no argument is given, display information for all AGs.

attr_remove [-r|-u|-s] [-n] name Remove the specified extended attribute from the current file.

-r Sets the attribute in the root namespace. Only one namespace option can be specified.

-u Sets the attribute in the user namespace. Only one namespace option can be specified.

-s Sets the attribute in the secure namespace. Only one namespace option can be specified.

-n Do not enable 'noattr2' mode on V4 filesystems.

attr_set [-r|-u|-s] [-n] [-R|-C] [-v namelen] name Sets an extended attribute on the current file with the given name.

-r Sets the attribute in the root namespace. Only one namespace option can be specified.

-u Sets the attribute in the user namespace. Only one namespace option can be specified.

-s Sets the attribute in the secure namespace. Only one namespace option can be specified.

-n Do not enable 'noattr2' mode on V4 filesystems.

-R Replace the attribute. The command will fail if the attribute does not already exist.

-C Create the attribute. The command will fail if the attribute already exists.

-v Set the attribute value to a string of this length containing the letter 'v'.

b See the back command.

back Move to the previous location in the position ring.

blockfree Free block usage information collected by the last execution of the blockget command. This must be done before another blockget command can be given, presumably with different arguments than the previous one.

blockget [-npvs] [-b bno] ... [-i ino] ... Get block usage and check filesystem consistency. The information is saved for use by a subsequent blockuse, ncheck, or blocktrash command.

-b is used to specify filesystem block numbers about which verbose information should be printed.

-i is used to specify inode numbers about which verbose information should be printed.

-n is used to save pathnames for inodes visited, this is used to support the xfs_ncheck(8) command. It also means that pathnames will be printed for inodes that have problems. This option uses a lot of memory so is not enabled by default.

-p causes error messages to be prefixed with the filesystem name being processed. This is useful if several copies of xfs_db are run in parallel.

-s restricts output to severe errors only. This is useful if the output is too long otherwise.

-v enables verbose output. Messages will be printed for every block and inode processed.

blocktrash [-z] [-o offset] [-n count] [-x min] [-y max] [-s seed] [-0|1|2|3] [-t type] ... Trash randomly selected filesystem metadata blocks. Trashing occurs to randomly selected bits in the chosen blocks. This command is available only in debugging versions of xfs_db. It is useful for testing xfs_repair(8).

-0 | -1 | -2 | -3 These are used to set the operating mode for blocktrash. Only one can be used: -0 changed bits are cleared; -1 changed bits are set; -2 changed bits are inverted; -3 changed bits are randomized.

-n supplies the count of block-trashings to perform (default 1).

-o supplies the bit offset at which to start trashing the block. If the value is preceded by a '+', the trashing will start at a randomly chosen offset that is larger than the value supplied. The default is to randomly choose an offset anywhere in the block.

-s supplies a seed to the random processing.

-t gives a type of blocks to be selected for trashing. Multiple -t options may be given. If no -t options are given then all metadata types can be trashed.

-x sets the minimum size of bit range to be trashed. The default value is 1.

-y sets the maximum size of bit range to be trashed. The default value is 1024.

-z trashes the block at the top of the stack. It is not necessary to run blockget if this option is supplied.

blockuse [-n] [-c count] Print usage for current filesystem block(s). For each block, the type and (if any) inode are printed.

-c specifies a count of blocks to process. The default value is 1 (the current block only).

-n specifies that file names should be printed. The prior blockget command must have also specified the -n option.

bmap [-a] [-d] [block [len]] Show the block map for the current inode. The map display can be restricted to an area of the file with the block and len arguments. If block is given and len is omitted then 1 is assumed for len.

The -a and -d options are used to select the attribute or data area of the inode, if neither option is given then both areas are shown.

btdump [-a] [-i] If the cursor points to a btree node, dump the btree from that block downward. If instead the cursor points to an inode, dump the data fork block mapping btree if there is one. If the cursor points to a directory or extended attribute btree node, dump that. By default, only records stored in the btree are dumped.

-a If the cursor points at an inode, dump the extended attribute block mapping btree, if present.

-i Dump all keys and pointers in intermediate btree nodes, and all records in leaf btree nodes.

btheight [-b blksz] [-n recs] [-w max|-w min] btree types... For a given number of btree records and a btree type, report the number of records and blocks for each level of the btree, and the total number of blocks. The btree type must be given after the options.

A raw btree geometry can be provided in the format "record_bytes:key_bytes:ptr_bytes:header_type", where header_type is one of "short", "long", "shortcrc", or "longcrc".

The supported btree types are: bnobt, cntbt, inobt, finobt, bmapbt, refcountbt, and rmapbt.

Options are as follows:

-b is used to override the btree block size. The default is the filesystem block size.

-n is used to specify the number of records to store. This argument is required.

-w max shows only the best case scenario, which is when the btree blocks are maximally loaded.

-w min shows only the worst case scenario, which is when the btree blocks are half full.

check See the blockget command.

convert type number [type number] ... type Convert from one address form to another. The known types, with alternate names, are: agblock or agbno (filesystem block within an allocation group) agino or aginode (inode number within an allocation group) agnumber or agno (allocation group number) bboff or daddroff (byte offset in a daddr) blkoff or fsboff or agboff (byte offset in a agblock or fsblock) byte or fsbyte (byte address in filesystem) daddr or bb (disk address, 512-byte blocks) fsblock or fsb or fsbno (filesystem block, see the fsblock command) ino or inode (inode number) inoidx or offset (index of inode in filesystem block) inooff or inodeoff (byte offset in inode)

Only conversions that "make sense" are allowed. The compound form (with more than three arguments) is useful for conversions such as convert agno ag agbno agb fsblock.

crc [-i|-r|-v] Invalidates, revalidates, or validates the CRC (checksum) field of the current structure, if it has one. This command is available only on CRC-enabled filesystems. With no argument, validation is performed. Each command will display the resulting CRC value and state.

-i Invalidate the structure's CRC value (incrementing it by one), and write it to disk.

-r Recalculate the current structure's correct CRC value, and write it to disk.

-v Validate and display the current value and state of the structure's CRC.

daddr [d] Set current address to the daddr (512 byte block) given by d. If no value for d is given, the current address is printed, expressed as a daddr. The type is set to data (uninterpreted).

dblock filoff Set current address to the offset filoff (a filesystem block number) in the data area of the current inode.

debug [flagbits] Set debug option bits. These are used for debugging xfs_db. If no value is given for flagbits, print the current debug option bits. These are for the use of the implementor.

dquot [-g|-p|-u] id Set current address to a group, project or user quota block for the given ID. Defaults to user quota.

echo [arg] ... Echo the arguments to the output.

f See the forward command.

forward Move forward to the next entry in the position ring.

frag [-adflqRrv] Get file fragmentation data. This prints information about fragmentation of file data in the filesystem (as opposed to fragmentation of freespace, for which see the freesp command). Every file in the filesystem is examined to see how far from ideal its extent mappings are. A summary is printed giving the totals.

-v sets verbosity, every inode has information printed for it. The remaining options select which inodes and extents are examined. If no options are given then all are assumed set, otherwise just those given are enabled.

-a enables processing of attribute data.

-d enables processing of directory data.

-f enables processing of regular file data.

-l enables processing of symbolic link data.

-q enables processing of quota file data.

-R enables processing of realtime control file data.

-r enables processing of realtime file data.

freesp [-bcds] [-A alignment] [-a ag] ... [-e i] [-h h1] ... [-m m] Summarize free space for the filesystem. The free blocks are examined and totalled, and displayed in the form of a histogram, with a count of extents in each range of free extent sizes.

-A reports only free extents with starting blocks aligned to alignment blocks.

-a adds ag to the list of allocation groups to be processed. If no -a options are given then all allocation groups are processed.

-b specifies that the histogram buckets are binary- sized, with the starting sizes being the powers of 2.

-c specifies that freesp will search the by-size (cnt) space Btree instead of the default by-block (bno) space Btree.

-d specifies that every free extent will be displayed.

-e specifies that the histogram buckets are equal- sized, with the size specified as i.

-h specifies a starting block number for a histogram bucket as h1. Multiple -h's are given to specify the complete set of buckets.

-m specifies that the histogram starting block numbers are powers of m. This is the general case of -b.

-s specifies that a final summary of total free extents, free blocks, and the average free extent size is printed.

fsb See the fsblock command.

fsblock [fsb] Set current address to the fsblock value given by fsb. If no value for fsb is given the current address is printed, expressed as an fsb. The type is set to data (uninterpreted). XFS filesystem block numbers are computed ((agno << agshift) | agblock) where agshift depends on the size of an allocation group. Use the convert command to convert to and from this form. Block numbers given for file blocks (for instance from the bmap command) are in this form.

fsmap [ start ] [ end ] Prints the mapping of disk blocks used by an XFS filesystem. The map lists each extent used by files, allocation group metadata, journalling logs, and static filesystem metadata, as well as any regions that are unused. All blocks, offsets, and lengths are specified in units of 512-byte blocks, no matter what the filesystem's block size is. The optional start and end arguments can be used to constrain the output to a particular range of disk blocks.

fuzz [-c] [-d] field action Write garbage into a specific structure field on disk. Expert mode must be enabled to use this command. The operation happens immediately; there is no buffering.

The fuzz command can take the following actions against a field:

zeroes Clears all bits in the field.

ones Sets all bits in the field.

firstbit Flips the first bit in the field. For a scalar value, this is the highest bit.

middlebit Flips the middle bit in the field.

lastbit Flips the last bit in the field. For a scalar value, this is the lowest bit.

add Adds a small value to a scalar field.

sub Subtracts a small value from a scalar field.

random Randomizes the contents of the field.

The following switches affect the write behavior:

-c Skip write verifiers and CRC recalculation; allows invalid data to be written to disk.

-d Skip write verifiers but perform CRC recalculation; allows invalid data to be written to disk to test detection of invalid data.

hash string Prints the hash value of string using the hash function of the XFS directory and attribute implementation.

help [command] Print help for one or all commands.

info Displays selected geometry information about the filesystem. The output will have the same format that mkfs.xfs(8) prints when creating a filesystem or xfs_info(8) prints when querying a filesystem.

inode [inode#] Set the current inode number. If no inode# is given, print the current inode number.

label [label] Set the filesystem label. The filesystem label can be used by mount(8) instead of using a device special file. The maximum length of an XFS label is 12 characters - use of a longer label will result in truncation and a warning will be issued. If no label is given, the current filesystem label is printed.

log [stop | start filename] Start logging output to filename, stop logging, or print the current logging status.

logformat [-c cycle] [-s sunit] Reformats the log to the specified log cycle and log stripe unit. This has the effect of clearing the log destructively. If the log cycle is not specified, the log is reformatted to the current cycle. If the log stripe unit is not specified, the stripe unit from the filesystem superblock is used.

logres Print transaction reservation size information for each transaction type. This makes it easier to find discrepancies in the reservation calculations between xfsprogs and the kernel, which will help when diagnosing minimum log size calculation errors.

ls [-i] [paths]... List the contents of a directory. If a path resolves to a directory, the directory will be listed. If no paths are supplied and the IO cursor points at a directory inode, the contents of that directory will be listed.

The output format is: directory cookie, inode number, file type, hash, name length, name.

-i Resolve each of the given paths to an inode number and print that number. If no paths are given and the IO cursor points to an inode, print the inode number.

metadump [-egow] filename Dumps metadata to a file. See xfs_metadump(8) for more information.

ncheck [-s] [-i ino] ... Print name-inode pairs. A blockget -n command must be run first to gather the information.

-i specifies an inode number to be printed. If no -i options are given then all inodes are printed.

-s specifies that only setuid and setgid files are printed.

p See the print command.

path dir_path Walk the directory tree to an inode using the supplied path. Absolute and relative paths are supported.

pop Pop location from the stack.

print [field-expression] ... Print field values. If no argument is given, print all fields in the current structure.

push [command] Push location to the stack. If command is supplied, set the current location to the results of command after pushing the old location.

q See the quit command.

quit Exit xfs_db.

ring [index] Show position ring (if no index argument is given), or move to a specific entry in the position ring given by index.

sb [agno] Set current address to SB header in allocation group agno. If no agno is given, use the current allocation group number.

source source-file Process commands from source-file. source commands can be nested.

stack View the location stack.

type [type] Set the current data type to type. If no argument is given, show the current data type. The possible data types are: agf, agfl, agi, attr, bmapbta, bmapbtd, bnobt, cntbt, data, dir, dir2, dqblk, inobt, inode, log, refcntbt, rmapbt, rtbitmap, rtsummary, sb, symlink and text. See the TYPES section below for more information on these data types.

timelimit [OPTIONS] Print the minimum and maximum supported values for inode timestamps, quota expiration timers, and quota grace periods supported by this filesystem. Options include:

--bigtime Print the time limits of an XFS filesystem with the bigtime feature enabled.

--classic Print the time limits of a classic XFS filesystem.

--compact Print all limits as raw values on a single line.

--pretty Print the timestamps in the current locale's date and time format instead of raw seconds since the Unix epoch.

uuid [uuid | generate | rewrite | restore] Set the filesystem universally unique identifier (UUID). The filesystem UUID can be used by mount(8) instead of using a device special file. The uuid can be set directly to the desired UUID, or it can be automatically generated using the generate option. These options will both write the UUID into every copy of the superblock in the filesystem. On a CRC-enabled filesystem, this will set an incompatible superblock flag, and the filesystem will not be mountable with older kernels. This can be reverted with the restore option, which will copy the original UUID back into place and clear the incompatible flag as needed. rewrite copies the current UUID from the primary superblock to all secondary copies of the superblock. If no argument is given, the current filesystem UUID is printed.

version [feature | versionnum features2] Enable selected features for a filesystem (certain features can be enabled on an unmounted filesystem, after mkfs.xfs(8) has created the filesystem). Support for unwritten extents can be enabled using the extflg option. Support for version 2 log format can be enabled using the log2 option. Support for extended attributes can be enabled using the attr1 or attr2 option. Once enabled, extended attributes cannot be disabled, but the user may toggle between attr1 and attr2 at will (older kernels may not support the newer version).

If no argument is given, the current version and feature bits are printed. With one argument, this command will write the updated version number into every copy of the superblock in the filesystem. If two arguments are given, they will be used as numeric values for the versionnum and features2 bits respectively, and their string equivalent reported (but no modifications are made).

write [-c|-d] [field value] ... Write a value to disk. Specific fields can be set in structures (struct mode), or a block can be set to data values (data mode), or a block can be set to string values (string mode, for symlink blocks). The operation happens immediately: there is no buffering.

Struct mode is in effect when the current type is structural, i.e. not data. For struct mode, the syntax is "write field value".

Data mode is in effect when the current type is data. In this case the contents of the block can be shifted or rotated left or right, or filled with a sequence, a constant value, or a random value. In this mode write with no arguments gives more information on the allowed commands.

-c Skip write verifiers and CRC recalculation; allows invalid data to be written to disk.

-d Skip write verifiers but perform CRC recalculation. This allows invalid data to be written to disk to test detection of invalid data. (This is not possible for some types.)
