Will > move Ah, I meant that parent pointers are a v5 only feature, and so we don't need a "v4 only" feature bit for it. As it is, we can't use that specific bit because SGI shipped a version of parent pointers on v4 filesystems on IRIX under that feature bit that was broken and subsequently recalled and killed. Essentially, that means XFS_SB_VERSION2_PARENTBIT is blacklisted and cannot ever be used by upstream kernels. > > > @@ -353,11 +354,13 @@ xfs_sb_has_compat_feature( > > > #define XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_RMAPBT (1 << 1) /* > > > reverse map btree */ > > > #define XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_REFLINK (1 << 2) /* > > > reflinked files */ > > > #define XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_INOBTCNT (1 << 3) /* > > > inobt block counts */ > > > +#define XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_PARENT (1 << 4) /* > > > parent inode ptr */ > > > #define XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_ALL \ > > > - (XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_FINOBT | \ > > > - XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_RMAPBT | \ > > > - XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_REFLINK| \ > > > - XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_INOBTCNT) > > > + (XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_FINOBT | \ > > > + XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_RMAPBT | \ > > > + XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_REFLINK | \ > > > + XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_INOBTCNT| \ > > > + XFS_SB_FEAT_RO_COMPAT_PARENT) > > > > I'm not sure this is a RO Compat feature - we added an attribute > > namespace flag on disk, and the older kernels do not know about > > that (i.e. we changed XFS_ATTR_NSP_ONDISK_MASK).

No, it needs to be a v5 feature bit - create a v5 parent pointer filesystem, create some files on it, and then go an mount it on a kernel that doesn't have PP support. If you can see the parent pointer attributes from userspace as "user.<binary garbage>" attributes, then we need to use an INCOMPAT feature bit rather than a RO_COMPAT bit.
