Subject: [PATCH 38/47] mke2fs: Warn if not enabling all the features that metadata_csum wants
Date: Sat, 08 Oct 2011 00:37:18 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111008073718.17888.55248.stgit@elm3c44.beaverton.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20111008073315.17888.22132.stgit@elm3c44.beaverton.ibm.com>

There are some features (gdt_csum, 64bit, bg_use_meta_csum) that help
metadata_csum to work optimally.  Print a warning if the user tries to create a
filesystem without those features.
