One of the complaints we get a lot is how many BUG_ON()'s we have. So to help with this I'm introducing a kconfig option to enable/disable a new ASSERT() mechanism much like what XFS does. This will allow us developers to still get our nice panics but allow users/distros to compile them out. With this we can go through and convert any BUG_ON()'s that we have to catch actual programming mistakes to the new ASSERT() and then fix everybody else to return errors. This will also allow developers to leave sanity checks in their new code to make sure we don't trip over problems while testing stuff and vetting new features.

Btrfs is a new filesystem with extents, writable snapshotting,
|
|
support for multiple devices and many more features.
|
|
|
|
Btrfs is highly experimental, and THE DISK FORMAT IS NOT YET
|
|
FINALIZED. You should say N here unless you are interested in
|
|
testing Btrfs with non-critical data.
|
|
|
|
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
|
|
module will be called btrfs.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say N.

POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and

To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the POSIX ACLs for

help
|

Adds code that examines all block write requests (including
|
|
writes of the super block). The goal is to verify that the
|
|
state of the filesystem on disk is always consistent, i.e.,
|
|
after a power-loss or kernel panic event the filesystem is
|
|
in a consistent state.
|
|
|
|
If the integrity check tool is included and activated in
|
|
the mount options, plenty of kernel memory is used, and
|
|
plenty of additional CPU cycles are spent. Enabling this
|
|
functionality is not intended for normal use.
|
|
|

In most cases, unless you are a btrfs developer who needs
|
|
to verify the integrity of (super)-block write requests
|
|
during the run of a regression test, say N

This will run some basic sanity tests on the free space cache

code to make sure it is acting as it should. These are mostly
