There quite a number of bugs in the Yongqiang's original patch set which I tripped over while I was testing 64-bit resize --- and please note that there are definitely still rough edges (especially for in cases where the file system was created < 16TB, but with the 64-bit feature and resize_inode features enabled). There may also be bugs for the straightforward case of resizing very large file systems. So while I very much appreciate users giving the code a try and sending us feedback, please do think twice before using this code on file systems with data that hasn't been backed up recently. (Of course, being good System Administrators you are all keeping --- and verifying --- regular backups, right? :-) Regards, - 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
