I tried 2.6.30 and test it
1. create an exact 2T LVM
2. create XFS on it
3. mont it with inode64 option
4. write files on it to full extent
5. use xfs_grow to expand it to 2.5T
6. touch a file and no error message returned
7. 'ls -l' can not show the file I created above.
So I think I should do something on userspace tools, but how?
