Are there any other requirements other than xattr support? Would be cool to find ever kernel fs impl and test them automatically on a server (maybe our rack space nodes) somewhere for a series of known gluster requirements.
Hello,
as far as I can see, from the UBIFS Faq
http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/ubifs.html#L_xattr
UBIFS supports extended attributes if the corresponding
configuration option
is enabled (no additional mount options are required). It supports
the
user, trusted, and security
name-spaces.
However, access control lists (ACL) support is not implemented.
beyond that, no clue if it's working.

Hi.
i am not very familiar with those filesystems you
mentioned, but as a rule of thumb, a FS for gluster has to
support extended attributes, so, this is a good way to start:
check if you can tdo that.
Also, when setting gluster with the recommended
configuration, you are supposed to use XFS, and the inodes
have to be defined with -i size=512.
If experimenting with other FS, make sure you can set the
inode as well, just to be in the safe side.
EXT4 is not a good option right now, just in case you are
wondering. Lots of discussion and documentation on those
issues in past threads of the list.
Cheers.
