I've never noticed a problem because creating a partition that large makes the xfstests runs take a long, long time. I typically use a 5 GB or 20GB partition. Is there a particular reason why you are trying to do test ext4 using a 1k blocksize for a 2T file system? We can fix mke2fs so it doesn't fail when you create a > 2T file system with a 1k block size, but the bigger question in my mind is why anyone would ever want to do that? - 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
