OK, good. I'll wait until this hits mainline then.

..."(run) out of inode attributes" - not really sure what that means and 
why that would be the case.

And "using larger inodes" sounds like a 
reformat with a larger "-i size=" option. Is there a way to find out my 
current inode size? "mkfs.xfs -N" does not print its default values on a 
mounted filesystem and I'm pretty sure I've used the default values when I 
created the filesystem a while ago (i.e. just plain "mkfs.xfs" w/o any 
options)

Thanks,
Christian.
