From c07651b556323e0e763c452587fe29d2b034b314 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2008 19:27:31 -0400 Subject: ext4: Don't allow nonextenst mount option for large filesystem The block mapped inode format can address only blocks within 2**32. This causes a number of issues, the biggest of which is that the block allocator needs to be taught that certain inodes can not utilize block numbers > 2**32. So until this is fixed, it is simplest to fail mounting of file systems with more than 2**32 blocks if the -o noextents option is given.
