quot_f in quot.c and various functions in state.c seem to have the same
issue, and need fixing as well.
I'd love to avoid having to expose fs_path as a global and just have a
few safe accessors:
char *global_fsname(void)
{
return fs_path ? fs_path->fs_name : NULL;
}
char *global_dir(void)
{
return fs_path ? fs_path->fs_dir : NULL;
}
char *global_mountpoint(void)
{
if (fs_path && (fs_path->fs_flags & FS_MOUNT_POINT))
return fs_path->fs_dir;
return NULL;
}
Together with moving a bit of code from quota/init.c to libxcmd/path.c
that should allow mkaing fs_path and fs_table static there.
I'd also really love to see a regression test for xfstests.
