           Summary: ext4 does not honour chattr +s attribute
           Product: File System
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 2.6.34
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: ext4
        AssignedTo: fs_ext4@...nel-bugs.osdl.org
        ReportedBy: usedonlytosignup@...il.com
        Regression: No


According to the man page setting this attribute will cause the files blocks to
be zero'd if it is deleted. It says it does this for ext2 and ext3 and does not
mention ext4, so I've marked it as "enhancement" though I think this is really
a bug.

Because it doesn't zero the blocks.
