As far as I know she never got around the design problem of what to do when you have a big file where the inode is in group #1, but it needs blocks in block groups #1, #2, #3, #4.... and what to do when you have a directory which has directory blocks that spans multiple block groups. She was going to design something complete new and incompatible from a format perspective, that had bidirection pointers, but I don't think this ever got to a working prototype stage as far as I know. Feel free to ask her, though.... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug.
