1config XFS_FS 2 tristate "XFS filesystem support" 3 depends on BLOCK 4 select EXPORTFS 5 help 6 XFS is a high performance journaling filesystem which originated 7 on the SGI IRIX platform. It is completely multi-threaded, can 8 support large files and large filesystems, extended attributes, 9 variable block sizes, is extent based, and makes extensive use of 10 Btrees (directories, extents, free space) to aid both performance 11 and scalability. 12 13 Refer to the documentation at <http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/> 14 for complete details. This implementation is on-disk compatible 15 with the IRIX version of XFS. 16 17 To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the 18 module will be called xfs. Be aware, however, that if the file 19 system of your root partition is compiled as a module, you'll need 20 to use an initial ramdisk (initrd) to boot. 21 22config XFS_QUOTA 23 bool "XFS Quota support" 24 depends on XFS_FS 25 help 26 If you say Y here, you will be able to set limits for disk usage on 27 a per user and/or a per group basis under XFS. XFS considers quota 28 information as filesystem metadata and uses journaling to provide a 29 higher level guarantee of consistency. The on-disk data format for 30 quota is also compatible with the IRIX version of XFS, allowing a 31 filesystem to be migrated between Linux and IRIX without any need 32 for conversion. 33 34 If unsure, say N. More comprehensive documentation can be found in 35 README.quota in the xfsprogs package. XFS quota can be used either 36 with or without the generic quota support enabled (CONFIG_QUOTA) - 37 they are completely independent subsystems. 38 39config XFS_POSIX_ACL 40 bool "XFS POSIX ACL support" 41 depends on XFS_FS 42 select FS_POSIX_ACL 43 help 44 POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and 45 groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme. 46 47 To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the POSIX ACLs for 48 Linux website <http://acl.bestbits.at/>. 49 50 If you don't know what Access Control Lists are, say N. 51 52config XFS_RT 53 bool "XFS Realtime subvolume support" 54 depends on XFS_FS 55 help 56 If you say Y here you will be able to mount and use XFS filesystems 57 which contain a realtime subvolume. The realtime subvolume is a 58 separate area of disk space where only file data is stored. It was 59 originally designed to provide deterministic data rates suitable 60 for media streaming applications, but is also useful as a generic 61 mechanism for ensuring data and metadata/log I/Os are completely 62 separated. Regular file I/Os are isolated to a separate device 63 from all other requests, and this can be done quite transparently 64 to applications via the inherit-realtime directory inode flag. 65 66 See the xfs man page in section 5 for additional information. 67 68 If unsure, say N. 69 70config XFS_DEBUG 71 bool "XFS Debugging support (EXPERIMENTAL)" 72 depends on XFS_FS && EXPERIMENTAL 73 help 74 Say Y here to get an XFS build with many debugging features, 75 including ASSERT checks, function wrappers around macros, 76 and extra sanity-checking functions in various code paths. 77 78 Note that the resulting code will be HUGE and SLOW, and probably 79 not useful unless you are debugging a particular problem. 80 81 Say N unless you are an XFS developer, or you play one on TV. 82
