Bug 218942 – stabilize sys-fs/xfsprogs-2.9.7

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Malahal Naineni 2008-04-22 20:08:41 UTC]

mkfs.xfs with default options on an 100GB partition, resulted in 70GB total file system size. Looks like there is a bug in the 2.9.5 version of xfsprogs with default options. I unmasked 2.9.7 and it has fixed it (I get 94GB total fs size).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create 100GB patition
2. Run mkfs.xfs /dev/<partition>
3.

Actual Results:  
Drastically reduced FS size!!! 

Expected Results:  
Reasonable total FS size

Talked to #xfs IRC channel in which they indicated a bug in 2.9.5 version, would love to see this ebuild go away.

2.9.5 is already stable, I guess you meant 2.9.7? changing summary
