2Date:		March 2008
3Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
4Description:
5		 Controls whether the multiblock allocator should
6		 collect statistics, which are shown during the unmount.
7		 1 means to collect statistics, 0 means not to collect
8		 statistics

11Date:		March 2008
12Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
13Description:
14		The multiblock allocator will round up allocation
15		requests to a multiple of this tuning parameter if the
16		stripe size is not set in the ext4 superblock

18What:		/sys/fs/ext4/<disk>/mb_max_to_scan
19Date:		March 2008
20Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
21Description:
22		The maximum number of extents the multiblock allocator
23		will search to find the best extent
24
25What:		/sys/fs/ext4/<disk>/mb_min_to_scan
26Date:		March 2008
27Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
28Description:
29		The minimum number of extents the multiblock allocator
30		will search to find the best extent
31
32What:		/sys/fs/ext4/<disk>/mb_order2_req
33Date:		March 2008
34Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
35Description:
36		Tuning parameter which controls the minimum size for
37		requests (as a power of 2) where the buddy cache is
38		used
39
40What:		/sys/fs/ext4/<disk>/mb_stream_req
41Date:		March 2008
42Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
43Description:
44		Files which have fewer blocks than this tunable
45		parameter will have their blocks allocated out of a
46		block group specific preallocation pool, so that small
47		files are packed closely together.  Each large file
48		 will have its blocks allocated out of its own unique
49		 preallocation pool.

52Date:		March 2008
53Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
54Description:
55		Tuning parameter which controls the maximum number of
56		inode table blocks that ext4's inode table readahead
57		algorithm will pre-read into the buffer cache
58
59What:		/sys/fs/ext4/<disk>/delayed_allocation_blocks
60Date:		March 2008
61Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
62Description:
63		This file is read-only and shows the number of blocks
64		that are dirty in the page cache, but which do not
65		have their location in the filesystem allocated yet.

68Date:		March 2008
69Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
70Description:
71		This file is read-only and shows the number of kilobytes
72		of data that have been written to this filesystem since it was
73		created.
74
75What:		/sys/fs/ext4/<disk>/session_write_kbytes
76Date:		March 2008
77Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
78Description:
79		This file is read-only and shows the number of
80		kilobytes of data that have been written to this
81		filesystem since it was mounted.

83What:		/sys/fs/ext4/<disk>/inode_goal
84Date:		June 2008
85Contact:	"Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
86Description:
87		Tuning parameter which (if non-zero) controls the goal
88		inode used by the inode allocator in p0reference to
89		all other allocation hueristics.  This is intended for
90		debugging use only, and should be 0 on production
91		systems.
