 | 5 | 	  XFS is a high performance journaling filesystem which originated | 
 | 6 | 	  on the SGI IRIX platform.  It is completely multi-threaded, can | 
 | 7 | 	  support large files and large filesystems, extended attributes, | 
 | 8 | 	  variable block sizes, is extent based, and makes extensive use of | 
 | 9 | 	  Btrees (directories, extents, free space) to aid both performance | 
 | 10 | 	  and scalability. | 
 | 11 |  | 
 | 12 | 	  Refer to the documentation at <http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/> | 
 | 13 | 	  for complete details.  This implementation is on-disk compatible | 
 | 14 | 	  with the IRIX version of XFS. | 
 | 15 |  | 
 | 16 | 	  To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the | 
 | 17 | 	  module will be called xfs.  Be aware, however, that if the file | 
 | 18 | 	  system of your root partition is compiled as a module, you'll need | 
 | 19 | 	  to use an initial ramdisk (initrd) to boot. |

 | 32 | 	  information as filesystem metadata and uses journaling to provide a | 
 | 33 | 	  higher level guarantee of consistency.  The on-disk data format for | 
 | 34 | 	  quota is also compatible with the IRIX version of XFS, allowing a | 
 | 35 | 	  filesystem to be migrated between Linux and IRIX without any need | 
 | 36 | 	  for conversion. |

 | 40 | 	  with or without the generic quota support enabled (CONFIG_QUOTA) - | 
 | 41 | 	  they are completely independent subsystems. |
