Hello, Ok, I found the extra data over 60 bytes ... it is in an extended attribute called "data" in the space after the inode. The wiki says it should be called "system.data" =( Also the wiki says here https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Disk_Layout#Extended_Attributes that "Extended attributes, when >>>not<<<< stored after the inode, have a header ext4_xattr_ibody_header that is 4 bytes long:" Which in my oppinion is false, it should be: "Extended attributes, when stored after the inode, have a header ext4_xattr_ibody_header that is 4 bytes long:" without the "not" But I still am not sure of one thing: How can I know how many entries of extended attributes there are? Nothing in the wiki explains this =( Otherwise I cannot differentiate between yet another entry and simply data from an extended attribute... -- Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho -- 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
