7 Details : disable preallocation for non-regular files.

16 Description: Kernel BUG at ... ldiskfs/ldiskfs/mballoc.c:3853
17 Details : Removing the underlying device (e.g. via a SCSI rescan) can cause a
18 kernel BUG in ldiskfs_mb_discard_inode_preallocations().
22 Description: deadlock in ext3_expand_extra_isize
23 Details : Inode expansion during ext3_mark_inode_dirty may lead to deadlock.
24 This is solved by making sure that ext3_expand_extra_isize isn't
25 called from ext3_xattr_set_handle.
29 Description: soft lockups on 1.6.2 MDS (is_subdir)
30 Details : don't add dentries with ".." to dcache and ignore such dentries in

49 Description: statfs speedup patches.
50 Details : The patches improve statfs performance for very large
54 Frequency : if the uninit_groups feature is enabled on ldiskfs
56 Description: e2fsck reports "invalid unused inodes count"
57 Details : If a new ldiskfs filesystem is created with the "uninit_groups"
58 feature and only a single inode is created in a group then the
59 "bg_unused_inodes" count is incorrectly updated. Creating a
60 second inode in that group would update it correctly.

67 Severity : enhancement
69 Description: Add a FIEMAP(FIle Extent MAP) ioctl for ldiskfs
70 Details : FIEMAP ioctl will allow an application to efficiently fetch the
71 extent information of a file. It can be used to map logical blocks
72 in a file to physical blocks in the block device.
74 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
76 2007-08-29 Cluster File Systems, Inc. <info@clusterfs.com>
82 Description: Multiple mount protection(MMP) support.
83 Details : This feature will protect the filesystem from being mounted more
84 than once simultaneously. It will also protect changes by e2fsprogs
85 to the filesystem if it is mounted. This assumes high importance
86 in a shared storage environment where multiple mounts can severely
87 corrupt the filesystem.
