Hi,

I'd like to confirm the behavior of XFS.

I found that the XFS command (xfs_growfs) changes the filesystem
which is mounted by read-only.
This phenomenon occurs on the read-only filesystem and 
on the filesystem that goes to read-only by the remount operation.

I think it should be the error with EROFS or EBUSY.

How do you think?

I did the following (tp_readonly.sh) :
    
        MNT=/mnt/xfs
        DEV=/dev/hda8
        mkfs -t xfs -f $DEV -d size=12000b
        mount -t xfs -o ro $DEV $MNT
        xfs_growfs -d $MNT
        xfs_growfs -n $MNT
        umount $MNT
        mount -t xfs $DEV $MNT

This results in the following messages:

        + MNT=/mnt/xfs
        + DEV=/dev/hda8

Running 2.4.18-xfs in this case.
