[PATCH 4/9] ubifs: Remove insert_dead_orphan from replaying orphan process

From: Zhihao Cheng
Date: Wed Apr 10 2024 - 03:47:28 EST


UBIFS will do commit at the end of mounting process(rw mode), dead
orphans(added by insert_dead_orphan in replaying orphan) are deleted
by ubifs_orphan_end_commit(). The only reason why dead orphans are
added into orphan list is that old orpans may be lost when powercut
happens in ubifs_orphan_end_commit():
ubifs_orphan_end_commit // TNC(updated by orphans) is not written yet
if (c->cmt_orphans != 0)
commit_orphans
consolidate // traverse orphan list
write_orph_nodes // rewrite all orphans by ubifs_leb_change
// If dead orphans are not in list, they will be lost when powercut
// happens, then TNC won't be updated by old orphans in next mounting.
Luckily, the condition 'c->cmt_orphans != 0' will never be true in
mounting process, there can't be new orphans added into orphan list
before mounting returned, but commit will be done at the end of mounting.
