[PATCH 15/47] misc: don't allow mk_hugefiles unless the fs supports extents

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The current mk_hugefile code in mke2fs doesn't support creating
non-extent files, so disable the functionality when we're mkfs'ing
without extent support.

The fallocate patches further on will eliminate the need for this.
