Subject: Does XFS support sharing blocks?
Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2008 19:07:30 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <485157D2.5050906@op.pl> (raw)

  Hello.

  I have a question: does the XFS filesystem support sharing blocks 
between objects (files, symlinks, fifos, ...). I mean, can 2 distinct 
objects have their data inside one physical block? If not, what is the 
"offset" field for in xfs_db output:

xfs_db> inode 19331
xfs_db> bmap -d
data offset 0 startblock 1212 (0/1212) count 1 flag 0
