Subject: [PATCH 2/3] ext4: add support for 32-bit default reserved uid and gid values
Date: Mon, 08 Sep 2025 23:15:49 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250908-tune2fs-v1-2-e3a6929f3355@mit.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250908-tune2fs-v1-0-e3a6929f3355@mit.edu>
From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
Support for specifying the default user id and group id that is
allowed to use the reserved block space was added way back when Linux
only supported 16-bit uid's and gid's. (Yeah, that long ago.) It's
not a commonly used feature, but let's add support for 32-bit user and
group id's.
