In addition to versioning capability of the entire + file system, users can even restore files mistakenly overwritten or + destroyed just a few seconds ago. Since this file system can keep + consistency like conventional LFS, it achieves quick recovery after + system crashes. + + NILFS2 creates a number of checkpoints every few seconds or per + synchronous write basis (unless there is no change). Users can + select significant versions among continuously created checkpoints, + and can change them into snapshots which will be preserved for long + periods until they are changed back to checkpoints. Each + snapshot is mountable as a read-only file system concurrently with + its writable mount, and this feature is convenient for online backup. + + Some features including atime, extended attributes, and POSIX ACLs, + are not supported yet. + + To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the + module will be called nilfs2. If unsure, say N. + endif # MISC_FILESYSTEMS menuconfig NETWORK_FILESYSTEMS
