EXT4 超级块介绍(转)

https://blog.csdn.net/sunlei0625/article/details/79011946

The superblock records various information about the enclosing filesystem, such as block counts, inode counts, supported features, maintenance information, and more.

If the sparse_super feature flag is set, redundant copies of the superblock and group descriptors are kept only in the groups whose group number is either 0 or a power of 3, 5, or 7.  If the flag is not set, redundant copies are kept in all groups.

The superblock checksum is calculated against the superblock structure, which includes the FS UUID.

The ext4 superblock is laid out as follows in struct ext4_super_block:

Offset

These fields are for EXT4_DYNAMIC_REV superblocks only.

Note: the difference between the compatible feature set and the incompatible feature set is that if there is a bit set in the incompatible feature set that the kernel doesn't know about, it should refuse to mount the filesystem.

e2fsck's requirements are more strict; if it doesn't know about a feature in either the compatible or incompatible feature set, it must abort and not try to meddle with things it doesn't understand...

0x5C

__le32

s_feature_compat

Compatible feature set flags. Kernel can still read/write this fs even if it doesn't understand a flag; fsck should not do that. Any of:

0x1	Directory preallocation (COMPAT_DIR_PREALLOC).
0x2	"imagic inodes". Not clear from the code what this does (COMPAT_IMAGIC_INODES).
0x4	Has a journal (COMPAT_HAS_JOURNAL).
0x8	Supports extended attributes (COMPAT_EXT_ATTR).
0x10	Has reserved GDT blocks for filesystem expansion (COMPAT_RESIZE_INODE).
0x20	Has directory indices (COMPAT_DIR_INDEX).
0x40	"Lazy BG". Not in Linux kernel, seems to have been for uninitialized block groups? (COMPAT_LAZY_BG)
0x80	"Exclude inode". Not used. (COMPAT_EXCLUDE_INODE).
0x100	"Exclude bitmap". Seems to be used to indicate the presence of snapshot-related exclude bitmaps? Not defined in kernel or used in e2fsprogs (COMPAT_EXCLUDE_BITMAP).
0x200	Sparse Super Block, v2. If this flag is set, the SB field s_backup_bgs points to the two block groups that contain backup superblocks (COMPAT_SPARSE_SUPER2).

0x60

__le32

s_feature_incompat

Incompatible feature set. If the kernel or fsck doesn't understand one of these bits, it should stop. Any of:

0x1	Compression (INCOMPAT_COMPRESSION).
0x2	Directory entries record the file type. See ext4_dir_entry_2 below (INCOMPAT_FILETYPE).
0x4	Filesystem needs recovery (INCOMPAT_RECOVER).
0x8	Filesystem has a separate journal device (INCOMPAT_JOURNAL_DEV).
0x10	Meta block groups. See the earlier discussion of this feature (INCOMPAT_META_BG).
0x40	Files in this filesystem use extents (INCOMPAT_EXTENTS).
0x80	Enable a filesystem size of 2^64 blocks (INCOMPAT_64BIT).
0x100	Multiple mount protection. Not implemented (INCOMPAT_MMP).
0x200	Flexible block groups. See the earlier discussion of this feature (INCOMPAT_FLEX_BG).
0x400	Inodes can be used to store large extended attribute values (INCOMPAT_EA_INODE).
0x1000	Data in directory entry (INCOMPAT_DIRDATA). (Not implemented?)
0x2000	Metadata checksum seed is stored in the superblock. This feature enables the administrator to change the UUID of a metadata_csum filesystem while the filesystem is mounted; without it, the checksum definition requires all metadata blocks to be rewritten (INCOMPAT_CSUM_SEED).
0x4000	Large directory >2GB or 3-level htree (INCOMPAT_LARGEDIR). Prior to this feature, directories could not be larger than 4GiB and could not have an htree more than 2 levels deep. If this feature is enabled, directories can be larger than 4GiB and have a maximum htree depth of 3.
0x8000	Data in inode (INCOMPAT_INLINE_DATA).
0x10000	Encrypted inodes are present on the filesystem. (INCOMPAT_ENCRYPT).

0x64

__le32

s_feature_ro_compat

Readonly-compatible feature set. If the kernel doesn't understand one of these bits, it can still mount read-only. Any of:

0x1	Sparse superblocks. See the earlier discussion of this feature (RO_COMPAT_SPARSE_SUPER).
0x2	This filesystem has been used to store a file greater than 2GiB (RO_COMPAT_LARGE_FILE).
0x4	Not used in kernel or e2fsprogs (RO_COMPAT_BTREE_DIR).
0x8	This filesystem has files whose sizes are represented in units of logical blocks, not 512-byte sectors. This implies a very large file indeed! (RO_COMPAT_HUGE_FILE)
0x10	Group descriptors have checksums. In addition to detecting corruption, this is useful for lazy formatting with uninitialized groups (RO_COMPAT_GDT_CSUM).
0x20	Indicates that the old ext3 32,000 subdirectory limit no longer applies (RO_COMPAT_DIR_NLINK). A directory's i_links_count will be set to 1 if it is incremented past 64,999.
0x40	Indicates that large inodes exist on this filesystem (RO_COMPAT_EXTRA_ISIZE).
0x80	This filesystem has a snapshot (RO_COMPAT_HAS_SNAPSHOT).
0x100	Quota (RO_COMPAT_QUOTA).
0x200	This filesystem supports "bigalloc", which means that file extents are tracked in units of clusters (of blocks) instead of blocks (RO_COMPAT_BIGALLOC).
0x400	This filesystem supports metadata checksumming. (RO_COMPAT_METADATA_CSUM; implies RO_COMPAT_GDT_CSUM, though GDT_CSUM must not be set)
0x800	Filesystem supports replicas. This feature is neither in the kernel nor e2fsprogs. (RO_COMPAT_REPLICA)
0x1000	Read-only filesystem image; the kernel will not mount this image read-write and most tools will refuse to write to the image. (RO_COMPAT_READONLY)
0x2000	Filesystem tracks project quotas. (RO_COMPAT_PROJECT)
