This is the journalling version of the Second extended file system
|
76 |
|
|
(often called ext3), the de facto standard Linux file system
|
77 |
|
|
(method to organize files on a storage device) for hard disks.
|
78 |
|
|
|
79 |
|
|
The journalling code included in this driver means you do not have
|
80 |
|
|
to run e2fsck (file system checker) on your file systems after a
|
81 |
|
|
crash. The journal keeps track of any changes that were being made
|
82 |
|
|
at the time the system crashed, and can ensure that your file system
|
83 |
|
|
is consistent without the need for a lengthy check.
|
84 |
|
|
|
85 |
|
|
Other than adding the journal to the file system, the on-disk format
|
86 |
|
|
of ext3 is identical to ext2. It is possible to freely switch
|
87 |
|
|
between using the ext3 driver and the ext2 driver, as long as the
|
88 |
|
|
file system has been cleanly unmounted, or e2fsck is run on the file
|
89 |
|
|
system.

|
|
|
91 |
|
|
To add a journal on an existing ext2 file system or change the
|
92 |
|
|
behavior of ext3 file systems, you can use the tune2fs utility ("man
|
93 |
|
|
tune2fs"). To modify attributes of files and directories on ext3
|
94 |
|
|
file systems, use chattr ("man chattr"). You need to be using

Ext4dev is a predecessor filesystem of the next generation
|
146 |
|
|
extended fs ext4, based on ext3 filesystem code. It will be
|
147 |
|
|
renamed ext4 fs later, once ext4dev is mature and stabilized.
|
148 |
|
|
|
149 |
|
|
Unlike the change from ext2 filesystem to ext3 filesystem,
|
150 |
|
|
the on-disk format of ext4dev is not the same as ext3 any more:
|
151 |
|
|
it is based on extent maps and it supports 48-bit physical block
|
152 |
|
|
numbers. These combined on-disk format changes will allow
|
153 |
|
|
ext4dev/ext4 to handle more than 16 TB filesystem volumes --
|
154 |
|
|
a hard limit that ext3 cannot overcome without changing the

155 |
|
|
on-disk format.
|

|
|
|
157 |
|
|

158 |

|
likely to have other new features such as persistent preallocation,
|
159 |
|

high resolution time stamps, and larger file support etc. These

features will be added to ext4dev gradually.

If you want to use one of the FAT-based file systems (the MS-DOS and

VFAT (Windows 95) file systems), then you must say Y or M here

733 |

diskettes with FAT-based file systems and transparently access the

735 |

This FAT support is not a file system in itself, it only provides

you can enable debugging messages by doing (as root):

echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/ntfs-debug

The sysfs filesystem is a virtual filesystem that the kernel uses to

973 |

export internal kernel objects, their attributes, and their

974 |

|
relationships to one another.
|
975 |

|
976 |
|
|
Users can use sysfs to ascertain useful information about the running
|
977 |
|
|
kernel, such as the devices the kernel has discovered on each bus and
|
978 |
|
|
which driver each is bound to. sysfs can also be used to tune devices

979 |
|
|
and other kernel subsystems.

Some system agents rely on the information in sysfs to operate.

delegating policy decisions, like persistently naming devices.

sysfs is currently used by the block subsystem to mount the root

example, "root=03:01" for /dev/hda1.

programs nfsd and mountd (but does not need to have NFS file system

Administrator's Guide, available from

the Coda file system; see "Coda file system support" below.

If you want your Linux box to act as an NFS *server*, so that other

1684 |

computers on your local network which support NFS can access certain

directories on your box transparently, you have two options: you can

1686 |

use the self-contained user space program nfsd, in which case you

1687 |

should say N here, or you can say Y and use the kernel based NFS

This is the client VFS module for the Common Internet File System
|
1902 |
|
|
(CIFS) protocol which is the successor to the Server Message Block
|
1903 |
|
|
(SMB) protocol, the native file sharing mechanism for most early
|
1904 |
|
|
PC operating systems. The CIFS protocol is fully supported by
|
1905 |
|
|
file servers such as Windows 2000 (including Windows 2003, NT 4
|
1906 |
|
|
and Windows XP) as well by Samba (which provides excellent CIFS
|
1907 |
|
|
server support for Linux and many other operating systems). Limited

1908 |
|
|
support for OS/2 and Windows ME and similar servers is provided as well.

The intent of the cifs module is to provide an advanced
|
1911 |
|
|
network file system client for mounting to CIFS compliant servers,
|
1912 |
|
|
including support for dfs (hierarchical name space), secure per-user

session establishment, safe distributed caching (oplock), optional

1914 |

packet signing, Unicode and other internationalization improvements.

Modern CIFS servers including Samba and most Windows versions

(since 1997) support stronger NTLM (and even NTLMv2 and Kerberos)

than the mechanisms used in the older LANMAN version of the

SMB protocol needed to establish sessions with old SMB servers.

disconnected operation (e.g. for laptops), read/write server

2059 |

replication, security model for authentication and encryption,
