But maybe I'm wrong. The file format is one big difference. The other is that having the quota code in the filesystem allows much nicer integration with the transaction code. Anyway, my next step is to support both the current "VFS" and the "XFS" quota interface independent of the underlying implementation, at least for the runtime calls. The quota on/off bits are a bit too different, but it might be a good idea to handle those everywhere primarily via mount options and deprecate most of the old calls, but keep supporting them for a long time. After that I plan to look a bit more in the quota implementation and look for sharing opportunities, but it might take a while until I get to that. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@oss.sgi.com http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
