Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/1] Add default config file for mkfs.xfs
Date: Thu, 14 May 2026 16:37:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260514143716.893814-2-lukas@herbolt.com> (raw)
Hi all,
The default values cannot always satisfy everybody and users/packagers should
be able to override defaults without the need of specifying configuration file
on command line. It was previously discussed in here [1].
The proposed patch adds /etc/mkfs.xfs.conf where the default values can be set.
It also lightly changes the default behavior for -l/-d/-r concurrency allowing
now to be set to -1 to keep autodetection on SSDs.
