Hi folks



ext4migrate:
- Patches submited to the mailing list by Aneesh Kumar
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.ext4/1395


I guess what we are looking at here is
a) ext3 -> ext4 conversion would be done via option for defrag. This
conversion is now done via a ioctl. This is the suggested method for
defragmenting an ext3 inode (convert to ext4 and then defrag).
b) small inode to large inode conversion is done via tune2fs -I <
new_inode_size> I have patches for this ready. Will be sending them
in a day or two.

So the ext4migrate command may not be really needed.

I will remove this item then and add the tune2fs changes.

Is the defrag code going to be part of e2fsprogs or is this going to be
a standalone app?


As per the last version posted

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.ext4/2290

There is a e4defrag command.
