From: Tao Ma <tao.ma@xxxxxxxxxx>
Ocfs2 uses a very flexible structure for storing extended attributes on
disk. Small amount of attributes are stored directly in the inode block - up
to 256 bytes worth. If that fills up, attributes are also stored in an
external block, linked to from the inode block. That block can in turn
expand to a btree, capable of storing large numbers of attributes.
Individual attribute values are stored inline if they're small enough
(currently about 80 bytes, this can be changed though), and otherwise are
expanded to a btree. The theoretical limit to the size of an individual
attribute is about the same as an inode, though the kernel's upper bound on
the size of an attributes data is far smaller.
