Original Lustre ea_inode feature did not have ref counts on xattr inodes because there was always one parent that referenced it. New implementation expects ref count to be initialized which is not true for Lustre case. Handle this by detecting Lustre created xattr inode and set its ref count to 1. The quota handling of xattr inodes have also changed with deduplication support. New implementation manually manages quotas to support sharing across multiple users. A consequence is that, a referencing inode incorporates the blocks of xattr inode into its own i_block field. We need to know how a xattr inode was created so that we can reverse the block charges during reference removal. This is handled by introducing a EXT4_STATE_LUSTRE_EA_INODE flag. The flag is set on a xattr inode if inode appears to have been created by Lustre. During xattr inode reference removal, the manual quota uncharge is skipped if the flag is set.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
