cc2e2767 | 75 | This is the journalling version of the Second extended file system |
1da177e4 LT |
76 | (often called ext3), the de facto standard Linux file system |
77 | (method to organize files on a storage device) for hard disks. | |
78 | ||
cc2e2767 | 79 | The journalling code included in this driver means you do not have |
1da177e4 LT |
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. | |
90 | ||
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 | |
95 | e2fsprogs version 1.20 or later in order to create ext3 journals | |
96 | (available at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/e2fsprogs/>). | |

145 | 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 | ||
dab291af MC |
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: | |
02ea2104 | 151 | it is based on extent maps and it supports 48-bit physical block |
dab291af | 152 | numbers. These combined on-disk format changes will allow |
02ea2104 MC |
153 | ext4dev/ext4 to handle more than 16 TB filesystem volumes -- |
154 | a hard limit that ext3 cannot overcome without changing the | |
dab291af | 155 | on-disk format. |
02ea2104 MC |

157 | Other than extent maps and 48-bit block numbers, ext4dev also is | |

02ea2104 | 159 | high resolution time stamps, and larger file support etc. These |

892 | This enables the partial, but safe, write support in the NTFS driver. | |
893 | ||
894 | The only supported operation is overwriting existing files, without | |
895 | changing the file length. No file or directory creation, deletion or | |
896 | renaming is possible. Note only non-resident files can be written to | |
897 | so you may find that some very small files (<500 bytes or so) cannot | |
898 | be written to. | |
899 | ||
900 | While we cannot guarantee that it will not damage any data, we have | |
901 | so far not received a single report where the driver would have | |
902 | damaged someones data so we assume it is perfectly safe to use. | |
903 | ||
904 | Note: While write support is safe in this version (a rewrite from | |
905 | scratch of the NTFS support), it should be noted that the old NTFS | |
906 | write support, included in Linux 2.5.10 and before (since 1997), | |

928 | The sysfs filesystem is a virtual filesystem that the kernel uses to | |
929 | export internal kernel objects, their attributes, and their | |
930 | relationships to one another. | |
931 | ||
932 | Users can use sysfs to ascertain useful information about the running | |
933 | kernel, such as the devices the kernel has discovered on each bus and | |
934 | which driver each is bound to. sysfs can also be used to tune devices | |
935 | and other kernel subsystems. | |
936 | ||
937 | Some system agents rely on the information in sysfs to operate. | |
938 | /sbin/hotplug uses device and object attributes in sysfs to assist in | |
03a67a46 | 939 | delegating policy decisions, like persistently naming devices. |

1711 | Solaris NFS servers support an auxiliary NFSv3 ACL protocol that |
1712 | never became an official part of the NFS version 3 protocol. | |
1713 | This protocol extension allows applications on NFS clients to | |
1714 | manipulate POSIX Access Control Lists on files residing on NFS | |
1715 | servers. NFS servers enforce POSIX ACLs on local files whether | |
1716 | this protocol is available or not. | |

1719 | NFSv3 ACL protocol extension allowing NFS clients to manipulate | |
1720 | POSIX ACLs on files exported by your system's NFS server. NFS | |
1721 | clients which support the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol can then | |
1722 | access and modify ACLs on your NFS server. | |
