Hi Tao, I folded your change into the metadata checksum patches before I applied them to the next branch (and which is now included in the master branch). So if you use the master/next branch, it should be fully in sync with the kernel implementation of metadata checksum. This was along with a number of other cleanups that I did to collapse related patches before they got fully applied into e2fsprogs. I have run xfstests with metadata checksum enabled in the kernel with the development branch of e2fsprogs, and it passes, so I'm fairly confident they are in sync. One of the questions that we should consider in the near future is when to cut a e2fsprogs 1.43 release. Things which we might want to consider adding before we cut 1.43 include the changes to fully support online resize for 64-bit file systems, and possibly the inline data patches, if we are confident in the e2fsprogs changes and that the format of inline data is ready to be cast into concrete.
