[PATCH] ext2: don't mount filesystems with compat features we know only ext4 supports

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

 



The ext2 mount code never checks the compat features against the ones
it knows about.  This is correct behavior since compat features are
supposed to be rw-compatible with old drivers; however, for certain
configurations (journalled rootfs) we probably want the ext4 driver
to load, not ext2.
