Thank you.
About the XFS "version" you are mentioning, a small clearer reference
might be worth.
The initial problem that triggered the need for this patch is seen when
formatting the partition with xfsprogs v4.x, not necessarily with prior
versions of xfsprogs.
Searching information about what changed in xfsprogs v4.x, there are
some references to "XFS v.5". At the same time, this patch mentions
versions 1/2/3 of XFS node directories. These several not-so-clear
"version" references could possibly be a source of confusion, if not
now, then for some users asking questions in the future, or for future
bug reports.
Could someone please clarify?
TIA,
Ady.
