Err, wouldn't that be a 2TB FILE limit, and not a FILESYSTEM limit?
Also, this limit only applies for allocated space within the file and
not the total size of the file (for sparse files). However, I don't
thing we have any checking in the kernel to ensure we don't overflow
2^32 allocated blocks for a single file (probably needs to be done in
ext*_alloc_block() or similar to ensure we have less than or equal to
"2^32 - (sb->blocksize >> 9)" blocks allocated to a file. I don't
know if we still have the old "limit total file size to 2TB" check
in there still.
Cheers, Andreas
