I'd say issue a warning in the case but if there's a 16k > physical device maybe there's no point in warning either? If the device physical sectorsize is that big, should we perhaps use that as a hint to align writes to that blocks aligned with that physical sectorsize? Right now we use the optimal I/O size, but if the optimal I/O size is not specified and the physical sectorsize is, say, 16k or 32k, maybe we should use to calculate for s_raid_stripe_width? - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
