Yeah, you are right. It is likely that a new MAXQUOTAS value will hurt other
file systems. And I saw your patch for it. I will use EXT4_MAXQUOTAS
in Ext4 instead.
However, the general codes in fs/quota or head files like quotaops.h use
MAXQUOTAS heavily too. I guess I have no better choice but replace
MAXQUOTAS there with a new macro, e.g. MAXQUOTAS_NEW (3). I will handle
the interfaces carefully so that they remain exactly the same semantics. Do you
have any better idea?
The reason why I replaced the sepcail type number (i.e. -1) with a bitmask is
that I thought there might be some cases when we want to operate on some
of the quota types rather than all of them. When the number of quota
types was 2,
-1 is alright. But since we are using 3 quota types, it becomes a
problem. In order
to keep the compatibility of quota interfaces, we need to pass only
QUOTA_USR_BIT | QUOTA_GRP_BIT to functions like __dquot_initialize().
But for ext4, we need to pass QUOTA_ALL_BIT. This is an important use case
which -1 quota type is not able to satisfy.
So, in general, I will:
1) keep MAXQUOTAS value as 2;
2) replace MAXQUOTAS in genral codes with MAXQUOTAS_NEW (3);
3) use EXT4_MAXQUOTAS in Ext4 codes.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
