It is completely multi-threaded, can + support large files and large filesystems, extended attributes, + variable block sizes, is extent based, and makes extensive use of + Btrees (directories, extents, free space) to aid both performance + and scalability. + + Refer to the documentation at <http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/> + for complete details. This implementation is on-disk compatible + with the IRIX version of XFS. + + To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the + module will be called xfs. Be aware, however, that if the file + system of your root partition is compiled as a module, you'll need + to use an initial ramdisk (initrd) to boot. + +config XFS_QUOTA + bool "XFS Quota support" + depends on XFS_FS + help + If you say Y here, you will be able to set limits for disk usage on + a per user and/or a per group basis under XFS. XFS considers quota + information as filesystem metadata and uses journaling to provide a + higher level guarantee of consistency. The on-disk data format for + quota is also compatible with the IRIX version of XFS, allowing a + filesystem to be migrated between Linux and IRIX without any need + for conversion. + + If unsure, say N. More comprehensive documentation can be found in + README.quota in the xfsprogs package. XFS quota can be used either + with or without the generic quota support enabled (CONFIG_QUOTA) - + they are completely independent subsystems. + +config XFS_POSIX_ACL + bool "XFS POSIX ACL support" + depends on XFS_FS + select FS_POSIX_ACL + help + POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and + groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme. + + To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the POSIX ACLs for + Linux website <http://acl.bestbits.at/>. + + If you don't know what Access Control Lists are, say N. + +config XFS_RT + bool "XFS Realtime subvolume support" + depends on XFS_FS + help + If you say Y here you will be able to mount and use XFS filesystems + which contain a realtime subvolume. The realtime subvolume is a + separate area of disk space where only file data is stored. It was + originally designed to provide deterministic data rates suitable + for media streaming applications, but is also useful as a generic + mechanism for ensuring data and metadata/log I/Os are completely + separated. Regular file I/Os are isolated to a separate device + from all other requests, and this can be done quite transparently + to applications via the inherit-realtime directory inode flag. + + See the xfs man page in section 5 for additional information. + + If unsure, say N. + +config XFS_DEBUG + bool "XFS Debugging support (EXPERIMENTAL)" + depends on XFS_FS && EXPERIMENTAL + help + Say Y here to get an XFS build with many debugging features, + including ASSERT checks, function wrappers around macros, + and extra sanity-checking functions in various code paths. + + Note that the resulting code will be HUGE and SLOW, and probably + not useful unless you are debugging a particular problem. + + Say N unless you are an XFS developer, or you play one on TV. |
