- Userland expects quota limit/warn/usage in 512b blocks

11-18-2010, 03:24 PM

Userland programs using the quotactl() syscall assume limit/warn/usage block counts in 512b basic blocks which were instead being read/written in fs blocksize in gfs2. With this patch, gfs2 correctly interacts with the syscall using 512b blocks.
