Please not. htree is just the worst possible directory format around. Do some nice hashed or btree directories, but don't try this odd hack again. Especially as the only reason it was developed for in ext2/3 doesn't work very well in a cluster filesystem anyway - to access the new htree all nodes would have to support the format anyway, so the whole easy up/downgrade thing doesn't matter at all. > -Extended attributes: This might be another area where we > steal^H^H^H^H^Hcopy some good code from Ext3 :) On top of this one can > trivially implement posix acls.

I'd say look at jfs or xfs (in the latter case of course with a less monsterous btree implementation) _______________________________________________ Ocfs2-devel mailing list [email protected] http://oss.oracle.com/mailman/listinfo/ocfs2-devel
