This could potentially confuse callers who don't know about extents. Programs that want to find out about the uninitialized extent flag, should use the extent iterator functions. As far as the other patches in this series, I'm concerned that dumpe2fs -s is going to confuse users more than anything else. - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
