Increase minimum XFS size to 300 MiB (#217)
As documented in the previous commit xfsprogs >= 5.19.0 refuses to create an XFS file system smaller than 300 MiB. $ truncate -s $((300*1024*1024-1)) test.img $ ls -l test.img -rw-r--r-- 1 auser auser 314572799 Dec 21 11:01 test.img $ mkfs.xfs -V mkfs.xfs version 6.0.0 $ mkfs.xfs test.img Filesystem must be larger than 300MB. ... $ echo $? 1 Successfully create an XFS file system at minimum size of 300 MiB. $ truncate -s $((300*1024*1024)) test.img $ ls -l test.img -rw-r--r-- 1 auser auser 314572800 Dec 21 11:05 test.img $ mkfs.xfs test.img ... $ echo $? 0 $ blkid test.img test.img: UUID="..." BLOCK_SIZE="512" TYPE="xfs" Increase the GParted minimum XFS size to 300 MiB. For simplicity and because the XFS developers said of smaller XFS file systems [1]: "are known to have performance and redundancy problems that are not present on the volume sizes that XFS is best at handling" regardless of the version of mkfs.xfs used to create that XFS then apply to all versions of xfsprogs.
