3 | help | |
4 | Ext2 is a standard Linux file system for hard disks. | |
5 | ||
6 | To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the | |
7 | module will be called ext2. | |
8 | ||
9 | If unsure, say Y. | |

12 | bool "Ext2 extended attributes" | |
13 | depends on EXT2_FS | |
14 | help | |
15 | Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated with inodes by | |
16 | the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page, or visit | |
17 | <http://acl.bestbits.at/> for details). | |
18 | ||

26 | Posix Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and | |

36 | depends on EXT2_FS_XATTR | |
37 | help | |
38 | Security labels support alternative access control models | |
39 | implemented by security modules like SELinux. This option | |
40 | enables an extended attribute handler for file security | |
41 | labels in the ext2 filesystem. | |
42 | ||
43 | If you are not using a security module that requires using | |
44 | extended attributes for file security labels, say N. | |

48 | depends on EXT2_FS && MMU | |
49 | help | |
50 | Execute in place can be used on memory-backed block devices. If you | |
51 | enable this option, you can select to mount block devices which are | |
52 | capable of this feature without using the page cache. | |
