ext4 extending extended attributes
Does it possible to make ext4 file system store extended file attributes of more than 4 KB?
|
It seems that the ea_inode feature, documented in the ext4 man page, allows extended attributes that are larger than a filesystem block. You should be able to set it with tune2fs.
Note that you can tune a filesystem, but you can't tuna fish (reference). |
Thank you very much, will this feature for the file system remain forever? I have never used tune2fs before.

Just be aware that the default FS for RHEL7 & RHEL 8 is xfs, so you'll have to specify ext4 at build time.
