NAME

       debugfs.ocfs2 - OCFS2 file system debugger.

SYNOPSIS

       debugfs.ocfs2 [-f cmdfile] [-R command] [-s backup] [-nwV?] [device]

       debugfs.ocfs2 -l [tracebit ... [allow|off|deny]] ...

       debugfs.ocfs2 -d, --decode lockname

       debugfs.ocfs2 -e, --encode lock_type block_num [generation | parent]

DESCRIPTION

       The debugfs.ocfs2 program is an interactive file system debugger useful
       in displaying on-disk OCFS2  filesystem  structures  on  the  specified
       device.

OPTIONS

       -d, --decode lockname
              Display the information encoded in the lockname.

       -e, --encode lock_type block_num [generation | parent]
              Display   the   lockname  obtained  by  encoding  the  arguments
              provided.

       -f, --file cmdfile
              Executes the debugfs commands in cmdfile.

       -i, --image
              Specifies device is an o2image file created by o2image tool.

       -l [tracebit ... [allow|off|deny]] ...
              Control OCFS2 filesystem tracing by enabling and disabling trace
              bits.  Do debugfs.ocfs2 -l to get the list of all trace bits.

       -n, --noprompt
              Hide prompt.

       -R, --request command
              Executes a single debugfs command.

       -s, --superblock backup-number
              mkfs.ocfs2  makes  upto  6  backup  copies  of the superblock at
              offsets 1G, 4G, 16G, 64G, 256G and 1T depending on the  size  of
              the  volume. Use this option to specify the backup, 1 thru 6, to
              use to open the volume.

       -w, --write
              Opens the filesystem in RW mode. By default  the  filesystem  is
              opened in RO mode.

       -V, --version
              Display version and exit.

       -?, --help
              Displays help and exit.

SPECIFYING FILES

       Many  debugfs.ocfs2  commands take a filespec as an argument to specify
       an inode (as  opposed  to  a  pathname)  in  the  filesystem  which  is
       currently  opened  by  debugfs.ocfs2.  The  filespec  argument  may  be
       specified in two forms. The first form is an inode number  or  lockname
       surrounded  by  angle  brackets,  e.g.,  <32>.  The  second  form  is a
       pathname; if the pathname is prefixed by a forward slash (’/’), then it
       is  interpreted  relative  to  the  root  of  the  filesystem  which is
       currently opened by debugfs.ocfs2. If  not,  the  path  is  interpreted
       relative   to   the   current   working   directory  as  maintained  by
       debugfs.ocfs2, which can be modified  using  the  command  cd.  If  the
       pathname  is  prefixed  by  a  double  forward slash (’//’), then it is
       interpreted relative to  the  root  of  the  system  directory  of  the
       filesystem opened by debugfs.ocfs2.

LOCKNAMES

       Locknames  are  specially  formatted strings used by the file system to
       uniquely identify objects in the filesystem.  Most  locknames  used  by
       OCFS2  are  generated  using the inode number and its generation number
       and can be decoded using the decode command or used directly  in  place
       of  an  inode  number  in  commands  requiring  a  filespec. Like inode
       numbers, locknames  need  to  be  enclosed  in  angle  brackets,  e.g.,
       <M000000000000000040c40c044069cf>.  To  generate a lockname for a given
       object, use the encode command.

COMMANDS

       This is a list of the commands which debugfs.ocfs2 supports.

       bmap filespec logical_block
              Display the physical block number corresponding to  the  logical
              block number logical_block in the inode filespec.

       cat filespec
              Dump the contents of inode filespec to stdout.

       cd filespec
              Change the current working directory to filespec.

       chroot filespec
              Change the root directory to be the directory filespec.

       close  Close the currently opened filesystem.

       controld dump
              Display information obtained from ocfs2_controld.

       curdev Show the currently open device.

       decode <lockname>
              Display the inode number encoded in the lockname.

       dirblocks <filespec>
              Display the directory blocks associated with the given filespec.

       dlm_locks [-f <file>] [-l] [<lockname(s)>]...
              Display the status of all lock resources  in  the  o2dlm  domain
              that  the  file  system is a member of. This command expects the
              debugfs filesystem to be mounted as  mount  -t  debugfs  debugfs
              /sys/kernel/debug.  Use  lockname(s)  to limit the output to the
              given lock resources, -l to include contents of the  lock  value
              block   and   -f   <file>   to   specify   a   saved   copy   of
              /sys/kernel/debug/o2dlm/<DOMAIN>/locking_state.

       dump [-p] filespec outfile
              Dump the contents of the  inode  filespec  to  the  output  file
              outfile.  If  the  -p is given, set the owner, group, timestamps
              and  permissions  information  on  outfile  to  match  those  of
              filespec.

       encode filespec
              Display the lockname for the filespec.

       extent block#
              Display the contents of the extent structure at block#.

       findpath [<lockname>|<inode#>]
              Display  the  pathname  for  the  inode specified by lockname or
              inode#. This command does not display all the hard-linked  paths
              for the inode.

       fs_locks [-f <file>] [-l] [-B] [<lockname(s)>]...
              Display  the  status of all locks known by the file system. This
              command expects the debugfs filesystem to be mounted as mount -t
              debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug.  Use lockname(s) to limit the
              output to the given lock resources, -B to limit  the  output  to
              only  the  busy  locks, -l to include contents of the lock value
              block   and   -f   <file>   to   specify   a   saved   copy   of
              /sys/kernel/debug/ocfs2/<UUID>/locking_state.

       group block#
              Display the contents of the group descriptor at block#.

       hb     Display the contents of the heartbeat system file.

       help, ?
              Print the list of commands understood by debugfs.ocfs2.

       icheck block# ...
              Display  the inodes that use the one or more blocks specified on
              the command line.  If the inode is a regular file, also  display
              the corresponding logical block offset.

       lcd directory
              Change  the  current  working  directory  of  the  debugfs.ocfs2
              process to the directory on the native filesystem.

       locate [<lockname>|<inode#>] ...
              Display all pathnames for the inode(s) specified by locknames or
              inode#s.

       logdump node#
              Display the contents of the journal for node node#.

       ls [-l] filespec
              Print  the  listing  of the files in the directory filespec. The
              -l flag will list files in the long format.

       ncheck [<lockname>|<inode#>] ...
              See locate.

       open device
              Open the filesystem on device.

       quit, q

              Recursively  dump  directory  filespec  and  all  its   contents
              (including  regular files, symbolic links and other directories)
              into the outdir which should be an  existing  directory  on  the
              native filesystem.

       slotmap
              Display the contents of the slotmap system file.

       stat filespec
              Display the contents of the inode structure for the filespec.

       stats [-h] [-s backup-number]
              Display  the  contents  of  the  superblock. Use -s to display a
              specific backup superblock. Use -h to hide the inode.

       xattr [-v] <filespec>
              Display extended attributes associated with the given  filespec.
