![]() We potentially have old hashes of the xattr names generated on systems
with signed 'char' types. Now that everybody uses '-funsigned-char',
those hashes will no longer match.
This only happens if you use xattrs names that have the high bit set,
which probably doesn't happen in practice, but the xfstest generic/454
shows it.
Instead of adding a new "signed xattr hash filesystem" bit and having to
deal with all the possible combinations, just calculate the hash both
ways if the first one fails, and always generate new hashes with the
proper unsigned char version.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
