[PATCH] Ext2/3 forward compatibility: inode size

tytso@mit.edu
Fri, 18 Oct 2002 21:58:57 -0400


This patch allows filesystems with expanded inodes to be mounted.
(compatibility feature flags will be used to control whether or not the
filesystem should be mounted in case the new inode fields will result in
compatibility issues). This allows for future compatibility with newer
versions of ext2fs.

Hopefully this and the dynamic resize forward compatibility patch can
get included for the 2.6 release.
