-D and -R options are mutually exclusive actually but chattr command
doesn't check it so that always applies -D option when both of them
are specified.  For example:
------------------------------------
# mkdir testdir
# mkdir testdir/tdir
# touch testdir/tfile
# xfs_io -c "chattr -D -R +s" testdir
# xfs_io -c "lsattr -R" testdir
----s----------- testdir/tdir
---------------- testdir/tfile
----s----------- testdir
------------------------------------

Add a check to disallow the combination.

Hi,

Ah,  I have a question after sending the patch:
Other commands(e.g. cowextsize) including the same options seem to avoid 
the issue by accepting the last option, as below:
--------------------------------------------------------
io/cowextsize.c
141         while ((c = getopt(argc, argv, "DR")) != EOF) {
142                 switch (c) {
143                 case 'D':
144                         recurse_all = 0;
145                         recurse_dir = 1;
146                         break;
147                 case 'R':
148                         recurse_all = 1;
149                         recurse_dir = 0;
150                         break;

Test:
# xfs_io -c "cowextsize -D -R" testdir
[0] testdir/tdir
[0] testdir/tfile
[0] testdir
[root@Fedora-31 ~]# xfs_io -c "cowextsize -R -D" testdir
[0] testdir/tdir
[0] testdir
--------------------------------------------------------

Perhaps, we should use the same solution. (not sure) :-)

Thanks,
Xiao Yang

They should all operate the same way and, IMO, the order of the
parameters on the command line should not change the behaviour of
the command. Hence I think erroring out is better than what the
cowextsize code does above.

Cheers,

Dave.

Yep, I meant to look at this but hadn't gotten to it yet.  These should all
be consistent, and I tend to agree with Dave that explicitly conflicting
incompatible options and erroring out is better than silently accepting
the last one specified.

And indeed help specifies that they are exclusive:

        cowextsize_cmd.args = _("[-D | -R] [cowextsize]");

It'd be great if you want to send a V2 that makes the behavior (and
documentation) of any/all commands that accept [-D | -R] consistent.

Thanks,
-Eric

Hi Eric, Dave

Thanks for your suggestions.
I will send v2 patch to make the behavior consistent.
