<p class="MsoNormal">Dear user, <br>
<br>
Yes, you also need to build a patched e2fsprogs. <br>
This is outlined in the Whamcloud hosted instructions and I recently wrote instructions for Rocky 8.10 & 9.4 (hosted on Github), though kernel release numbers changed since...
<br>
<br>
The Whamcloud Wiki is here: https://wiki.whamcloud.com/display/PUB/Building+Lustre+from+Source
<br>
My own instructions are here: https://github.com/DetlevCM/lustre-build-instructions

Kind regards <br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello again! I posted here earlier about my attempts at building Lustre with Nix. There was another issue I was struggling with, related to e2fsprogs, that I thought I should ask here if I was supposed to patch it too?
<br>
<br>
<br>
My mkfs.lustre (ldiskfs) is failing with mke2fs complaining about an "incompatible option set". Specifically it's complaining about the option `dirdata`. Looking at e2fsprogs' sources, `EXT4_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_DIRDATA` isn't listed in `ok_features` in `misc/mke2fs.c`.
Even if I add it there, mke2fs fails later at `ext2fs_initialize`. I was surprised not to find any error reports in jira concerning dirdata specifically (there were similar errors reported for e.g. large_dir), surely I must be doing something wrong.
<br>
<br>
<br>
Do I have to patch e2fsprogs? <br>
<br>
<br>
Do tell me if I'm being too noisy or if there's a better channel for this sort of questions. I actually have a few more, should I ask each in a separate thread or should I aggregate all under one SUBJECT?
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks <br>
