No, not at all. We only have bits for variables that get logged. The
LSn of the object is never logged as it is stamped into the object
when it is being written back. i.e. it is an indication of when the
object was last modified, not a field that is recorded during
modifications.

This just indicates that there are inodes with attributes in the
filesystem. It's not an "enabling" feature at all. If it's not
present when the first attribute is created, then the kernel code
will set it. Hence all this does it maintain the existing
behaviour....

No, because we still support version 4 superblocks and hence all
these bit for the indefinite future (i.e. forever).

This is for version 1/2 inodes and which formats are present in the
filesystem. It has been set by default in mkfs for a long time.
Version 5 superblocks don't change this. This bit can also be set on
demand by the kernel if it is not present and an inode requires a
link count of > 2^16.

Further, CRCs require v3 inodes, so this is only relevant for
non-crc enabled filesystems.

Set when quotas are turned on by the kernel. Behaves the same for
v4/v5 superblocks.

mkfs already sets this bit unconditionally for v4 superblocks, so V5
makes it mandatory.

Necessary to indicate sunit/swidth are set at mkfs time, indicating
alignment restrictions are present on filesystem layout. Behaves the
same for v4/v5 superblocks.

Because some things are simply set as supported on v5 superblocks,
while other are still optional or indicative of on-disk formats in
use.

The MOREBITSBIT bit means that the sb_features2 field exists in the
on disk structure. That is clearly true for all v5 superblocks, and
so we don't need to care if the MOREBITSBIT is set or not.

No, this change means lazy superblock counters are a fixed feature
of v5 superblocks - it is not optional like it currently is. The
check inside xfs_sb_version_hasmorebits() is to determine if the
features2 field is present, not that the lazycount feature is
supported....

Same again - v5 implies attr2 behaviour is the only attr fork
behaviour supported.

Same again - v5 superblocks *always* support 32 bit project ids.

It makes the XFS_SB_VERSION2_CRCBIT an invalid feature bit - it has
never, ever been used by anything - so any filesystem with that bit
set will fail to mount.

No. the code that calls xfs_sb_version_tonew() only does so for
superblocks whose version is <= 3. i.e. filesystems that came from
Irix 6.2 or earlier....

Used by userspace, and seeing as this file is common between kernel
and userspace, it hasn't been removed as that simply imposes higher
maintenance cost on us.
