  8. This is the next generation of the ext3 filesystem.
  9. Unlike the change from ext2 filesystem to ext3 filesystem,
  10. the on-disk format of ext4 is not forwards compatible with
  11. ext3; it is based on extent maps and it supports 48-bit
  12. physical block numbers. The ext4 filesystem also supports delayed
  13. allocation, persistent preallocation, high resolution time stamps,
  14. and a number of other features to improve performance and speed
  15. up fsck time. For more information, please see the web pages at
  16. http://ext4.wiki.kernel.org.
  17. The ext4 filesystem will support mounting an ext3
  18. filesystem; while there will be some performance gains from
  19. the delayed allocation and inode table readahead, the best
  20. performance gains will require enabling ext4 features in the
  21. filesystem, or formatting a new filesystem as an ext4
  22. filesystem initially.
  23. To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
  24. module will be called ext4.
  25. If unsure, say N.

  32. Allow the ext4 file system driver code to be used for ext2 or
  33. ext3 file system mounts. This allows users to reduce their
  34. compiled kernel size by using one file system driver for
  35. ext2, ext3, and ext4 file systems.

  41. POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and
  42. groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme.
  43. To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the POSIX ACLs for
  44. Linux website <http://acl.bestbits.at/>.

  49. help
  50. Security labels support alternative access control models
  51. implemented by security modules like SELinux. This option
  52. enables an extended attribute handler for file security
  53. labels in the ext4 filesystem.
  54. If you are not using a security module that requires using
  55. extended attributes for file security labels, say N.

  69. Enable encryption of ext4 files and directories. This
  70. feature is similar to ecryptfs, but it is more memory
  71. efficient since it avoids caching the encrypted and
  72. decrypted pages in the page cache.

  81. Enables run-time debugging support for the ext4 filesystem.
  82. If you select Y here, then you will be able to turn on debugging
  83. with a command such as:
  84. echo 1 > /sys/module/ext4/parameters/mballoc_debug
