Also, although this isn't first change that we've added to resize2fs which has this property, it used to be that if resize2fs was interrupted, the user could usually recover by running e2fsck. With ea_inode, there will be cases where resize2fs getting interrupted could result in the file system's extended attributes getting pretty badly scrambled. Using an undo file is one way to solve the problem; so perhaps something we should consider is making the undo file enabled by default. (Although then we need to figure out where to put it; the current directory might not be the right place, especially if it happens to be /tmp.) - Ted
