We discussed this on the ext4 developer concall today and tried to
move the landing of these patches forward. Some notes below:
- Ted: agreed to reserve EXT4_FEATURE_RO_COMPAT_PROJECT, s_prj_quota_inum,
EXT4_PROJINHERIT_FL, and i_projid fields for use by project quota to
avoid compatibility issues if patches are not landed immediately.
- Ted: to do final check of inode flag value
- ext4 project quota inode does not need to use a reserved inode, but
could after Jan's patch to increase reserved inodes lands
- Li Xi: identify xfstests subtests that are exercising project quota
- submit patches to xfstests that will activate them for ext4
- keep in ext4 xfstests for testing until patches land upstream
- this needs to be done before landing to ensure ext4 code works
- Li Xi: document the behaviour of project quota (if no existing
document exists for XFS already), some of this is already below
- update man pages for df(1) and statfs(2) for subdir with project ID
(i.e. that it returns only quota usage and limit for project ID)
- Ted: where should document go? linux/Documentation/fs? ext4 wiki?
- not a requirement for testing, can be done after landing
- All: decide on a common tool for setting project ID on file/directory
- don't want to require xfsutils in order to use project quota
- start with chattr (using FS_IOC_FS{GET,SET}XATTR) in e2fsprogs
- allows testing project quota with e2fsprogs/ext4
- chproj (like chown/chgrp) would also be an option
- needs more discussion/development effort, goes into fileutils
- this doesn't need to be decided immediately, and both could be done
Ted, please add in anything that I forgot.
Cheers, Andreas
