Subject: [PATCH v2] docs: ext4: modify the group desc size to 64
Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2023 09:35:24 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230222013525.14748-1-bo.wu@vivo.com> (raw)
Since the default ext4 group desc size is 64 now (assuming that the
64-bit feature is enbled). And the size mentioned in this doc is 64 too.
Change it to 64.
