+Super Block
+-----------
+
+The superblock records various information about the enclosing
+filesystem, such as block counts, inode counts, supported features,
+maintenance information, and more.
+
+If the sparse\_super feature flag is set, redundant copies of the
+superblock and group descriptors are kept only in the groups whose group
+number is either 0 or a power of 3, 5, or 7. If the flag is not set,
+redundant copies are kept in all groups.
+
+The superblock checksum is calculated against the superblock structure,
+which includes the FS UUID.
+
+The ext4 superblock is laid out as follows in
+``struct ext4_super_block``:
+
+.. list-table::

+       refuse to mount the filesystem.
+       
+       e2fsck's requirements are more strict; if it doesn't know
+       about a feature in either the compatible or incompatible feature set, it

+     - Has a journal (COMPAT\_HAS\_JOURNAL).
+   * - 0x8
+     - Supports extended attributes (COMPAT\_EXT\_ATTR).
+   * - 0x10
+     - Has reserved GDT blocks for filesystem expansion
+       (COMPAT\_RESIZE\_INODE). Requires RO\_COMPAT\_SPARSE\_SUPER.
+   * - 0x20
+     - Has directory indices (COMPAT\_DIR\_INDEX).
+   * - 0x40
+     - “Lazy BG”. Not in Linux kernel, seems to have been for uninitialized
+       block groups? (COMPAT\_LAZY\_BG)
+   * - 0x80
+     - “Exclude inode”. Not used. (COMPAT\_EXCLUDE\_INODE).
+   * - 0x100
+     - “Exclude bitmap”. Seems to be used to indicate the presence of
+       snapshot-related exclude bitmaps? Not defined in kernel or used in
+       e2fsprogs (COMPAT\_EXCLUDE\_BITMAP).
+   * - 0x200
+     - Sparse Super Block, v2. If this flag is set, the SB field s\_backup\_bgs
+       points to the two block groups that contain backup superblocks
+       (COMPAT\_SPARSE\_SUPER2).
+
+.. _super_incompat:
+
+The superblock incompatible features field is a combination of any of the
+following:
+
+.. list-table::
+   :widths: 1 79
+   :header-rows: 1
+
+   * - Value
+     - Description
+   * - 0x1
+     - Compression (INCOMPAT\_COMPRESSION).
+   * - 0x2
+     - Directory entries record the file type. See ext4\_dir\_entry\_2 below
+       (INCOMPAT\_FILETYPE).
+   * - 0x4
+     - Filesystem needs recovery (INCOMPAT\_RECOVER).
+   * - 0x8
+     - Filesystem has a separate journal device (INCOMPAT\_JOURNAL\_DEV).
+   * - 0x10
+     - Meta block groups. See the earlier discussion of this feature
+       (INCOMPAT\_META\_BG).
+   * - 0x40
+     - Files in this filesystem use extents (INCOMPAT\_EXTENTS).
+   * - 0x80
+     - Enable a filesystem size of 2^64 blocks (INCOMPAT\_64BIT).
+   * - 0x100
+     - Multiple mount protection. Not implemented (INCOMPAT\_MMP).
+   * - 0x200
+     - Flexible block groups. See the earlier discussion of this feature
+       (INCOMPAT\_FLEX\_BG).
+   * - 0x400
+     - Inodes can be used to store large extended attribute values
+       (INCOMPAT\_EA\_INODE).
+   * - 0x1000
+     - Data in directory entry (INCOMPAT\_DIRDATA). (Not implemented?)
+   * - 0x2000
+     - Metadata checksum seed is stored in the superblock. This feature enables
+       the administrator to change the UUID of a metadata\_csum filesystem
+       while the filesystem is mounted; without it, the checksum definition
+       requires all metadata blocks to be rewritten (INCOMPAT\_CSUM\_SEED).
+   * - 0x4000
+     - Large directory >2GB or 3-level htree (INCOMPAT\_LARGEDIR). Prior to
+       this feature, directories could not be larger than 4GiB and could not
+       have an htree more than 2 levels deep. If this feature is enabled,
+       directories can be larger than 4GiB and have a maximum htree depth of 3.
+   * - 0x8000
+     - Data in inode (INCOMPAT\_INLINE\_DATA).
+   * - 0x10000
+     - Encrypted inodes are present on the filesystem. (INCOMPAT\_ENCRYPT).
+
+.. _super_rocompat:

+the following:
+
+.. list-table::
+   :widths: 1 79
+   :header-rows: 1
+
+   * - Value
+     - Description
+   * - 0x1
+     - Sparse superblocks. See the earlier discussion of this feature
+       (RO\_COMPAT\_SPARSE\_SUPER).
+   * - 0x2
+     - This filesystem has been used to store a file greater than 2GiB
+       (RO\_COMPAT\_LARGE\_FILE).
+   * - 0x4
+     - Not used in kernel or e2fsprogs (RO\_COMPAT\_BTREE\_DIR).
+   * - 0x8
+     - This filesystem has files whose sizes are represented in units of
+       logical blocks, not 512-byte sectors. This implies a very large file
+       indeed! (RO\_COMPAT\_HUGE\_FILE)
+   * - 0x10
+     - Group descriptors have checksums. In addition to detecting corruption,
+       this is useful for lazy formatting with uninitialized groups
+       (RO\_COMPAT\_GDT\_CSUM).
+   * - 0x20
+     - Indicates that the old ext3 32,000 subdirectory limit no longer applies
+       (RO\_COMPAT\_DIR\_NLINK). A directory's i\_links\_count will be set to 1
+       if it is incremented past 64,999.
+   * - 0x40
+     - Indicates that large inodes exist on this filesystem
+       (RO\_COMPAT\_EXTRA\_ISIZE).

+   * - 0x100
+     - `Quota <Quota>`__ (RO\_COMPAT\_QUOTA).
+   * - 0x200
+     - This filesystem supports “bigalloc”, which means that file extents are
+       tracked in units of clusters (of blocks) instead of blocks
+       (RO\_COMPAT\_BIGALLOC).
+   * - 0x400
+     - This filesystem supports metadata checksumming.
+       (RO\_COMPAT\_METADATA\_CSUM; implies RO\_COMPAT\_GDT\_CSUM, though
+       GDT\_CSUM must not be set)
+   * - 0x800
+     - Filesystem supports replicas. This feature is neither in the kernel nor
+       e2fsprogs. (RO\_COMPAT\_REPLICA)
+   * - 0x1000
+     - Read-only filesystem image; the kernel will not mount this image
+       read-write and most tools will refuse to write to the image.
+       (RO\_COMPAT\_READONLY)
+   * - 0x2000
+     - Filesystem tracks project quotas. (RO\_COMPAT\_PROJECT)
+

+
+.. list-table::
+   :widths: 1 79
+   :header-rows: 1
+
+   * - Value
+     - Description
+   * - 0x0001
+     - Print debugging info upon (re)mount. (EXT4\_DEFM\_DEBUG)
+   * - 0x0002
+     - New files take the gid of the containing directory (instead of the fsgid
+       of the current process). (EXT4\_DEFM\_BSDGROUPS)
+   * - 0x0004
+     - Support userspace-provided extended attributes. (EXT4\_DEFM\_XATTR\_USER)
+   * - 0x0008

+       journal. (EXT4\_DEFM\_JMODE\_ORDERED)
+   * - 0x0060
+     - Data ordering is not preserved; data may be written after the metadata
+       has been written. (EXT4\_DEFM\_JMODE\_WBACK)
+   * - 0x0100
+     - Disable write flushes. (EXT4\_DEFM\_NOBARRIER)
+   * - 0x0200
+     - Track which blocks in a filesystem are metadata and therefore should not
+       be used as data blocks. This option will be enabled by default on 3.18,
+       hopefully. (EXT4\_DEFM\_BLOCK\_VALIDITY)
+   * - 0x0400
+     - Enable DISCARD support, where the storage device is told about blocks
+       becoming unused. (EXT4\_DEFM\_DISCARD)
+   * - 0x0800
+     - Disable delayed allocation. (EXT4\_DEFM\_NODELALLOC)
+
+.. _super_flags:
