Also I find the wording a bit odd, the point is that xfsprogs relies on (it or rather will with your entire series), so maybe: /* * xfsprogs relies on the LFS interfaces with a 64-bit off_t to * actually support sensible file systems sizes. */ And while I'm nitpicking, maybe a better place would be to move this to libxfs as that's where we really care. If you use the C99 static_assert instead of the kernel BUILD_BUG_ON this can even move outside a function and just into a header somewhere, say include/xfs,h. Which actually happens to have this assert in an awkware open coded way already: /* * make sure that any user of the xfs headers has a 64bit off_t type */ extern int xfs_assert_largefile[sizeof(off_t)-8]; Enough of my stream of consciousness, sorry. To summarize the findings: - we don't really need this patch all - but cleaning up xfs_assert_largefile to just use static_assert would probably be nice to have anyway
