[PATCH 6/6] Add interface to advertise ext4 features in sysfs

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



User-space should have the opportunity to check what features doest ext4
support in each particular copy. This adds easy interface by creating new
"features" directory in sys/fs/ext4/. In that directory files
advertising feature names can be created.

Add lazy_itable_init to the feature list.
