Summary: Cannot build XFS with quota support as module
Kernel Version: 2.6.14
Status: NEW
Severity: high
Owner: xfs-masters@xxxxxxxxxxx
Submitter: tristan-777@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: 2.6.13.4
Distribution: Debian GNU/Linux 3.1
Problem Description: Cannot build XFS filesystem support as module with quota
support. It works only when the XFS filesystem support is compiled into the
kernel. Menuconfig prevents from setting CONFIG_XFS_FS=m and CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA=y.
How to reproduce:
configure the XFS filesystem with quota support as module. The resulting kernel
won't have quota support compiled into xfs.ko.
Fix: Changing the fs/xfs/Kconfig file from tristate to bool lets you configure
the quota support to be compiled into the XFS module. The Makefile-linux-2.6
checks only for CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA=y.
