No, there isn't anything currently in existence to do this.
It's not difficult, though. What you need to do is count the number of
used blocks in the AGs that will be truncated off, and check whether
there is enough free space in the remaining AGs to hold all the
blocks that we are going to move.
I think this could be done we a single loop across the perag
array or with a simple xfs_db wrapper and some shell/awk/perl
magic.
e.g: Here's the basis:
budgie:~ # for i in `seq 0 1 7`; do
> xfs_db -r -c "agf $i" -c "p freeblks" -c "p btreeblks" /dev/sdb8
> done
freeblks = 32779
btreeblks = 0
freeblks = 63003
btreeblks = 0
freeblks = 124423
btreeblks = 0
freeblks = 114516
btreeblks = 0
freeblks = 126602
btreeblks = 0
freeblks = 125905
btreeblks = 0
freeblks = 127886
btreeblks = 0
freeblks = 125445
btreeblks = 0
Now all you need to extract is the size of each ag from teh superblock,
determine which AGs are going to be freed, and do some math ;)
Cheers,
Dave.
