    [XFS] Ondisk format extension for extended attributes (attr2). Basically, · d8cc890d
    Nathan Scott authored
    the data/attr forks now grow up/down from either end of the literal area,
    rather than dividing the literal area into two chunks and growing both
    upward.  Means we can now make much more efficient use of the attribute
    space, incl. fitting DMF attributes inline in 256 byte inodes, and large
    jumps in dbench3 performance numbers.  It is self enabling, but can be
    forced on/off via the attr2/noattr2 mount options.
