Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 4/5] ext2: Add alignment check for DAX mount
Date: Sun, 8 May 2016 01:59:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160508085937.GD15458@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1462494596-20938-5-git-send-email-toshi.kani@hpe.com>

Not really for the patch, but given that we have the right people
on CC:

Do we really want to keep DAX support in ext2 in the long run?  ext2
is missing a lot of the useful features for a modern FS, shouldn't
we direct people to use ext4 (in non-journal mode if needed) if they
want to use DAX?  ext4 will even support the unmodified ext2 fs, so it
shouldn't be a big hurdle, and it would avoid a lot of churn in ext2.
