Are you sure about this? I think the limit is 64k per attribute; you can
still have multiple 64k attributes.
I made a tiny xfs filesystem to test this, then made a 0-byte file and
added 64K attributes until I ran out of space:
[root@lite sda2]# pwd
/mnt/sda2
[root@lite sda2]# ls -la
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 16 Apr 6 18:01 .
drwxr-xr-x 11 root root 4096 Mar 19 11:44 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Apr 6 17:58 foo
[root@lite sda2]# df -h | grep sda2
/dev/sda2 1.3M 1.3M 28k 98% /mnt/sda2
[root@lite sda2]# xfs_info /mnt/sda2
meta-data=/mnt/sda2 isize=256 agcount=1, agsize=1536 blks
data = bsize=4096 blocks=1536, imaxpct=25
= sunit=0 swidth=0 blks, unwritten=0
naming =version 2 bsize=4096
log =internal bsize=4096 blocks=1200
realtime =none extsz=65536 blocks=0, rtextents=0
so apparently the attr stored outside the inode does not count as inode
space in imaxpct.
