From f3d430ff8cda80ccb9b73d9efa0e186fa532b74e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Chinner Date: Wed, 11 May 2022 17:03:23 +1000 Subject: xfs: initialise attrd item to zero On the first allocation of a attrd item, xfs_trans_add_item() fires an assert like so: XFS (pmem0): EXPERIMENTAL logged extended attributes feature added. Use at your own risk! XFS: Assertion failed: !test_bit(XFS_LI_DIRTY, &lip->li_flags), file: fs/xfs/xfs_trans.c, line: 683 ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at fs/xfs/xfs_message.c:102!

Fix the attr items to be allocated via the *zalloc methods. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner Reviewed-by: Allison Henderson Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
