From df981d03eeff7971ac7e6ff37000bfa702327ef1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2012 09:48:17 -0400 Subject: ext4: add max_dir_size_kb mount option Very large directories can cause significant performance problems, or perhaps even invoke the OOM killer, if the process is running in a highly constrained memory environment (whether it is VM's with a small amount of memory or in a small memory cgroup). So it is useful, in cloud server/data center environments, to be able to set a filesystem-wide cap on the maximum size of a directory, to ensure that directories never get larger than a sane size. We do this via a new mount option, max_dir_size_kb. If there is an attempt to grow the directory larger than max_dir_size_kb, the system call will return ENOSPC instead.
