Question about inode64

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

 



Hi, XFS developers

Recently, I was told that some 32bit applications don't work
on large XFS filesystems. And it is caused by ino overflow in syscalls.

If I don't misunderstand libxfs/xfs_format, XFS' absolute inode number
consists of agno_log
-agblklog-inopblog bits.
So significative bits = ROUND(log2(Disk size / AG size)) + ROUND(log2(AG
size / BLK size)) + ROUND(log2(BLK size / inode size)). Right?
Does it mean that it's feasible to avoid ino overflow by control of disk
size, AG size, block size, inode size when mkfs even the disk will be mount
with option inode64.

Thanks,
Su
