[PATCH] xfs: minor inode64 mount option cleanup

Subject: [PATCH] xfs: minor inode64 mount option cleanup
Date: Wed, 01 Aug 2012 09:56:53 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <501943B5.4030309@inktank.com> (raw)

Supplying the "inode64" mount option means inode allocations should
not be restricted to "small" inode numbers (within a 32 bit range).
So in xfs_parseargs(), the XFS_MOUNT_SMALL_INUMS flag is cleared if
"inode64" is requested.

If a kernel does not support 64-bit inodes (which may be because it
doesn't support 64-bit block addresses), the "inode64" mount option
is not allowed.  But even though it's treated as an invalid mount
option xfs_parseargs() still clears SMALL_INUMS flag if "inode64" is
requested.

The end result may not actually matter, but I think we should not be
changing any state (clearing the SMALL_INUMS flag) when an invalid
mount option is supplied.

So this just makes sure the SMALL_INUMS flag is only cleared if the
kernel supports big inode numbers.
