Advanced Format drive - sectsz question
Hello list, I have hard drive which reports:
logical_block_size -> 512physical_block_size -> 4096
Default mkfs.xfs sets sectsz to 512.
kernel-2.6.32-131.17.1.el6.x86_64
xfsprogs-3.1.1-4.el6.x86_64
Is mkfs.xfs -s size=4096 the right way?
TIA!, Z.

Yes, we probably should default to 4096 bytes sector size for these drivers, but still allow 512 byte sector sized filesystems if explicitly requested.

Makes sense, thanks for clarification Christoph.
