When mounting an XFS filesystem, the following options are accepted.
21
21
22
- biosize=size
23
- Sets the preferred buffered I/O size (default size is 64K).
24
- "size" must be expressed as the logarithm (base2) of the
25
- desired I/O size.
26
- Valid values for this option are 14 through 16, inclusive
27
- (i.e. 16K, 32K, and 64K bytes). On machines with a 4K
28
- pagesize, 13 (8K bytes) is also a valid size.
29
- The preferred buffered I/O size can also be altered on an
30
- individual file basis using the ioctl(2) system call.
22
+ allocsize=size
23
+ Sets the buffered I/O end-of-file preallocation size when
24
+ doing delayed allocation writeout (default size is 64KiB).
25
+ Valid values for this option are page size (typically 4KiB)
26
+ through to 1GiB, inclusive, in power-of-2 increments.
27
+
28
+ attr2/noattr2
29
+ The options enable/disable (default is disabled for backward
30
+ compatibility on-disk) an "opportunistic" improvement to be
31
+ made in the way inline extended attributes are stored on-disk.
32
+ When the new form is used for the first time (by setting or
33
+ removing extended attributes) the on-disk superblock feature
34
+ bit field will be updated to reflect this format being in use.
35
+
36
+ barrier
37
+ Enables the use of block layer write barriers for writes into
38
+ the journal and unwritten extent conversion. This allows for
39
+ drive level write caching to be enabled, for devices that
40
+ support write barriers.
41
+
42
+ dmapi
43
+ Enable the DMAPI (Data Management API) event callouts.
44
+ Use with the "mtpt" option.
45
+
46
+ grpid/bsdgroups and nogrpid/sysvgroups
47
+ These options define what group ID a newly created file gets.
48
+ When grpid is set, it takes the group ID of the directory in
49
+ which it is created; otherwise (the default) it takes the fsgid
50
+ of the current process, unless the directory has the setgid bit
51
+ set, in which case it takes the gid from the parent directory,
52
+ and also gets the setgid bit set if it is a directory itself.
53
+
54
+ ihashsize=value
55
+ Sets the number of hash buckets available for hashing the
56
+ in-memory inodes of the specified mount point. If a value
57
+ of zero is used, the value selected by the default algorithm
58

61
When inode clusters are emptied of inodes, keep them around
34
62
on the disk (ikeep) - this is the traditional XFS behaviour
35
63
and is still the default for now. Using the noikeep option,
36
64
inode clusters are returned to the free space pool.

+ inode64
67
+ Indicates that XFS is allowed to create inodes at any location
68
+ in the filesystem, including those which will result in inode
69
+ numbers occupying more than 32 bits of significance. This is
70
+ provided for backwards compatibility, but causes problems for
71
+ backup applications that cannot handle large inode numbers.
72
+
73
+ largeio/nolargeio
74
+ If "nolargeio" is specified, the optimal I/O reported in
75
+ st_blksize by stat(2) will be as small as possible to allow user
76
+ applications to avoid inefficient read/modify/write I/O.
77
+ If "largeio" specified, a filesystem that has a "swidth" specified
78
+ will return the "swidth" value (in bytes) in st_blksize. If the
79
+ filesystem does not have a "swidth" specified but does specify
80
+ an "allocsize" then "allocsize" (in bytes) will be returned
81
+ instead.
82
+ If neither of these two options are specified, then filesystem
83
+ will behave as if "nolargeio" was specified.
