9 XFS is a high performance journaling filesystem which originated
10 on the SGI IRIX platform. It is completely multi-threaded, can
11 support large files and large filesystems, extended attributes,
12 variable block sizes, is extent based, and makes extensive use of
13 Btrees (directories, extents, free space) to aid both performance
14 and scalability.
15
16 Refer to the documentation at <http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/>
17 for complete details. This implementation is on-disk compatible
18 with the IRIX version of XFS.
19
20 To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
21 module will be called xfs. Be aware, however, that if the file
22 system of your root partition is compiled as a module, you'll need
23 to use an initial ramdisk (initrd) to boot.

30 The V4 filesystem format lacks certain features that are supported
31 by the V5 format, such as metadata checksumming, strengthened
32 metadata verification, and the ability to store timestamps past the
33 year 2038. Because of this, the V4 format is deprecated. All users
34 should upgrade by backing up their files, reformatting, and restoring
35 from the backup.
36
37 Administrators and users can detect a V4 filesystem by running
38 xfs_info against a filesystem mountpoint and checking for a string
39 beginning with "crc=". If the string "crc=0" is found, the
40 filesystem is a V4 filesystem. If no such string is found, please
41 upgrade xfsprogs to the latest version and try again.
42
43 This option will become default N in September 2025. Support for the
44 V4 format will be removed entirely in September 2030. Distributors
45 can say N here to withdraw support earlier.
46
47 To continue supporting the old V4 format (crc=0), say Y.
48 To close off an attack surface, say N.

50config XFS_SUPPORT_ASCII_CI
51 bool "Support deprecated case-insensitive ascii (ascii-ci=1) format"
52 depends on XFS_FS
53 default y
54 help
55 The ASCII case insensitivity filesystem feature only works correctly
56 on systems that have been coerced into using ISO 8859-1, and it does
57 not work on extended attributes. The kernel has no visibility into
58 the locale settings in userspace, so it corrupts UTF-8 names.
59 Enabling this feature makes XFS vulnerable to mixed case sensitivity
60 attacks. Because of this, the feature is deprecated. All users
61 should upgrade by backing up their files, reformatting, and restoring
62 from the backup.
63
64 Administrators and users can detect such a filesystem by running
65 xfs_info against a filesystem mountpoint and checking for a string
66 beginning with "ascii-ci=". If the string "ascii-ci=1" is found, the
67 filesystem is a case-insensitive filesystem. If no such string is
68 found, please upgrade xfsprogs to the latest version and try again.

1da177e4
LT
81 help
82 If you say Y here, you will be able to set limits for disk usage on
83 a per user and/or a per group basis under XFS. XFS considers quota
84 information as filesystem metadata and uses journaling to provide a
85 higher level guarantee of consistency. The on-disk data format for
86 quota is also compatible with the IRIX version of XFS, allowing a
87 filesystem to be migrated between Linux and IRIX without any need
88 for conversion.
89
90 If unsure, say N. More comprehensive documentation can be found in
91 README.quota in the xfsprogs package. XFS quota can be used either
92 with or without the generic quota support enabled (CONFIG_QUOTA) -
93 they are completely independent subsystems.

110 which contain a realtime subvolume. The realtime subvolume is a
111 separate area of disk space where only file data is stored. It was
112 originally designed to provide deterministic data rates suitable
113 for media streaming applications, but is also useful as a generic
114 mechanism for ensuring data and metadata/log I/Os are completely
115 separated. Regular file I/Os are isolated to a separate device
116 from all other requests, and this can be done quite transparently
117 to applications via the inherit-realtime directory inode flag.

166 help
167 Say Y here to get an XFS build with many additional warnings.
168 It converts ASSERT checks to WARN, so will log any out-of-bounds
169 conditions that occur that would otherwise be missed. It is much
170 lighter weight than XFS_DEBUG and does not modify algorithms and will
171 not cause the kernel to panic on non-fatal errors.

174 are debugging a particular problem.
