| Super Block |
| ----------- |
| |
| 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``: |

| 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... |

| - 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 |

| * - 0x100 |
| - `Quota <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) |
| * - 0x8000 |
| - Verity inodes may be present on the filesystem. (RO_COMPAT_VERITY) |
| * - 0x10000 |
| - Indicates orphan file may have valid orphan entries and thus we need |
| to clean them up when mounting the filesystem |
| (RO_COMPAT_ORPHAN_PRESENT). |
