DESCRIPTION         top

       mkfs.xfs constructs an XFS filesystem by writing on a special file
       using the values found in the arguments of the command line.  It is
       invoked automatically by mkfs(8) when it is given the -t xfs option.
       In its simplest (and most commonly used form), the size of the
       filesystem is determined from the disk driver.  As an example, to
       make a filesystem with an internal log on the first partition on the
       first SCSI disk, use:
              mkfs.xfs /dev/sda1
       The metadata log can be placed on another device to reduce the number
       of disk seeks.  To create a filesystem on the first partition on the
       first SCSI disk with a 10MiB log located on the first partition on
       the second SCSI disk, use:
              mkfs.xfs -l logdev=/dev/sdb1,size=10m /dev/sda1
       Each of the option elements in the argument list above can be given
       as multiple comma-separated suboptions if multiple suboptions apply
       to the same option.  Equivalently, each main option can be given
       multiple times with different suboptions.  For example, -l
       internal,size=10m and -l internal -l size=10m are equivalent.
       In the descriptions below, sizes are given in sectors, bytes, blocks,
       kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, etc.  Sizes are treated as
       hexadecimal if prefixed by 0x or 0X, octal if prefixed by 0, or
       decimal otherwise.  The following lists possible multiplication
       suffixes:
              s - multiply by sector size (default = 512, see -s option
                     below).
              b - multiply by filesystem block size (default = 4K, see -b
                     option below).
              k - multiply by one kilobyte (1,024 bytes).
              m - multiply by one megabyte (1,048,576 bytes).
              g - multiply by one gigabyte (1,073,741,824 bytes).
              t - multiply by one terabyte (1,099,511,627,776 bytes).
              p - multiply by one petabyte (1,024 terabytes).
              e - multiply by one exabyte (1,048,576 terabytes).
       When specifying parameters in units of sectors or filesystem blocks,
       the -s option or the -b option first needs to be added to the command
       line.  Failure to specify the size of the units will result in
       illegal value errors when parameters are quantified in those units.
       Many feature options allow an optional argument of 0 or 1, to
       explicitly disable or enable the functionality.

OPTIONS         top

       -b block_size_options
              This option specifies the fundamental block size of the
              filesystem.  The valid block_size_options are: log=value or
              size=value and only one can be supplied.  The block size is
              specified either as a base two logarithm value with log=, or
              in bytes with size=.  The default value is 4096 bytes (4 KiB),
              the minimum is 512, and the maximum is 65536 (64 KiB).
              To specify any options on the command line in units of
              filesystem blocks, this option must be specified first so that
              the filesystem block size is applied consistently to all
              options.
              Although mkfs.xfs will accept any of these values and create a
              valid filesystem, XFS on Linux can only mount filesystems with
              pagesize or smaller blocks.
       -m global_metadata_options
              These options specify metadata format options that either
              apply to the entire filesystem or aren't easily characterised
              by a specific functionality group. The valid
              global_metadata_options are:
                   crc=value
                          This is used to create a filesystem which
                          maintains and checks CRC information in all
                          metadata objects on disk. The value is either 0 to
                          disable the feature, or 1 to enable the use of
                          CRCs.
                          CRCs enable enhanced error detection due to
                          hardware issues, whilst the format changes also
                          improves crash recovery algorithms and the ability
                          of various tools to validate and repair metadata
                          corruptions when they are found.  The CRC
                          algorithm used is CRC32c, so the overhead is
                          dependent on CPU architecture as some CPUs have
                          hardware acceleration of this algorithm.
                          Typically the overhead of calculating and checking
                          the CRCs is not noticeable in normal operation.
                          By default, mkfs.xfs will enable metadata CRCs.
                   finobt=value
                          This option enables the use of a separate free
                          inode btree index in each allocation group. The
                          value is either 0 to disable the feature, or 1 to
                          create a free inode btree in each allocation
                          group.
                          The free inode btree mirrors the existing
                          allocated inode btree index which indexes both
                          used and free inodes. The free inode btree does
                          not index used inodes, allowing faster, more
                          consistent inode allocation performance as
                          filesystems age.
                          By default, mkfs.xfs will create free inode btrees
                          for filesystems created with the (default) -m
                          crc=1 option set. When the option -m crc=0 is
                          used, the free inode btree feature is not
                          supported and is disabled.
                   uuid=value
                          Use the given value as the filesystem UUID for the
                          newly created filesystem.  The default is to
                          generate a random UUID.
                   rmapbt=value
                          This option enables the creation of a reverse-
                          mapping btree index in each allocation group.  The
                          value is either 0 to disable the feature, or 1 to
                          create the btree.
                          The reverse mapping btree maps filesystem blocks
                          to the owner of the filesystem block.  Most of the
                          mappings will be to an inode number and an offset,
                          though there will also be mappings to filesystem
                          metadata.  This secondary metadata can be used to
                          validate the primary metadata or to pinpoint
                          exactly which data has been lost when a disk error
                          occurs.
                          By default, mkfs.xfs will not create reverse
                          mapping btrees.  This feature is only available
                          for filesystems created with the (default) -m
                          crc=1 option set. When the option -m crc=0 is
                          used, the reverse mapping btree feature is not
                          supported and is disabled.
                   reflink=value
                          This option enables the use of a separate
                          reference count btree index in each allocation
                          group. The value is either 0 to disable the
                          feature, or 1 to create a reference count btree in
                          each allocation group.
                          The reference count btree enables the sharing of
                          physical extents between the data forks of
                          different files, which is commonly known as
                          "reflink".  Unlike traditional Unix filesystems
                          which assume that every inode and logical block
                          pair map to a unique physical block, a reflink-
                          capable XFS filesystem removes the uniqueness
                          requirement, allowing up to four billion arbitrary
                          inode/logical block pairs to map to a physical
                          block.  If a program tries to write to a multiply-
                          referenced block in a file, the write will be
                          redirected to a new block, and that file's
                          logical-to-physical mapping will be changed to the
                          new block ("copy on write").  This feature enables
                          the creation of per-file snapshots and
                          deduplication.  It is only available for the data
                          forks of regular files.
                          By default, mkfs.xfs will not create reference
                          count btrees and therefore will not enable the
                          reflink feature.  This feature is only available
                          for filesystems created with the (default) -m
                          crc=1 option set. When the option -m crc=0 is
                          used, the reference count btree feature is not
                          supported and reflink is disabled.
       -d data_section_options
              These options specify the location, size, and other parameters
              of the data section of the filesystem. The valid
              data_section_options are:
                   agcount=value
                          This is used to specify the number of allocation
                          groups. The data section of the filesystem is
                          divided into allocation groups to improve the
                          performance of XFS. More allocation groups imply
                          that more parallelism can be achieved when
                          allocating blocks and inodes. The minimum
                          allocation group size is 16 MiB; the maximum size
                          is just under 1 TiB.  The data section of the
                          filesystem is divided into value allocation groups
                          (default value is scaled automatically based on
                          the underlying device size).
                   agsize=value
                          This is an alternative to using the agcount
                          suboption. The value is the desired size of the
                          allocation group expressed in bytes (usually using
                          the m or g suffixes).  This value must be a
                          multiple of the filesystem block size, and must be
                          at least 16MiB, and no more than 1TiB, and may be
                          automatically adjusted to properly align with the
                          stripe geometry.  The agcount and agsize
                          suboptions are mutually exclusive.
                   name=value
                          This can be used to specify the name of the
                          special file containing the filesystem. In this
                          case, the log section must be specified as
                          internal (with a size, see the -l option below)
                          and there can be no real-time section.
                   file[=value]
                          This is used to specify that the file given by the
                          name suboption is a regular file. The value is
                          either 0 or 1, with 1 signifying that the file is
                          regular. This suboption is used only to make a
                          filesystem image. If the value is omitted then 1
                          is assumed.
                   size=value
                          This is used to specify the size of the data
                          section. This suboption is required if -d file[=1]
                          is given. Otherwise, it is only needed if the
                          filesystem should occupy less space than the size
                          of the special file.
                   sunit=value
                          This is used to specify the stripe unit for a RAID
                          device or a logical volume. The value has to be
                          specified in 512-byte block units. Use the su
                          suboption to specify the stripe unit size in
                          bytes. This suboption ensures that data
                          allocations will be stripe unit aligned when the
                          current end of file is being extended and the file
                          size is larger than 512KiB. Also inode allocations
                          and the internal log will be stripe unit aligned.
                   su=value
                          This is an alternative to using sunit.  The su
                          suboption is used to specify the stripe unit for a
                          RAID device or a striped logical volume. The value
                          has to be specified in bytes, (usually using the m
                          or g suffixes). This value must be a multiple of
                          the filesystem block size.
                   swidth=value
                          This is used to specify the stripe width for a
                          RAID device or a striped logical volume. The value
                          has to be specified in 512-byte block units. Use
                          the sw suboption to specify the stripe width size
                          in bytes.  This suboption is required if -d sunit
                          has been specified and it has to be a multiple of
                          the -d sunit suboption.
                   sw=value
                          suboption is an alternative to using swidth.  The
                          sw suboption is used to specify the stripe width
                          for a RAID device or striped logical volume. The
                          value is expressed as a multiplier of the stripe
                          unit, usually the same as the number of stripe
                          members in the logical volume configuration, or
                          data disks in a RAID device.
                          When a filesystem is created on a logical volume
                          device, mkfs.xfs will automatically query the
                          logical volume for appropriate sunit and swidth
                          values.
                   noalign
                          This option disables automatic geometry detection
                          and creates the filesystem without stripe geometry
                          alignment even if the underlying storage device
                          provides this information.
       -f     Force overwrite when an existing filesystem is detected on the
              device.  By default, mkfs.xfs will not write to the device if
              it suspects that there is a filesystem or partition table on
              the device already.
       -i inode_options
              This option specifies the inode size of the filesystem, and
              other inode allocation parameters.  The XFS inode contains a
              fixed-size part and a variable-size part.  The variable-size
              part, whose size is affected by this option, can contain:
              directory data, for small directories; attribute data, for
              small attribute sets; symbolic link data, for small symbolic
              links; the extent list for the file, for files with a small
              number of extents; and the root of a tree describing the
              location of extents for the file, for files with a large
              number of extents.
              The valid inode_options are:
                   size=value | log=value | perblock=value
                          The inode size is specified either as a value in
                          bytes with size=, a base two logarithm value with
                          log=, or as the number fitting in a filesystem
                          block with perblock=.  The minimum (and default)
                          value is 256 bytes without crc, 512 bytes with crc
                          enabled.  The maximum value is 2048 (2 KiB)
                          subject to the restriction that the inode size
                          cannot exceed one half of the filesystem block
                          size.
                          XFS uses 64-bit inode numbers internally; however,
                          the number of significant bits in an inode number
                          is affected by filesystem geometry.  In practice,
                          filesystem size and inode size are the predominant
                          factors.  The Linux kernel (on 32 bit hardware
                          platforms) and most applications cannot currently
                          handle inode numbers greater than 32 significant
                          bits, so if no inode size is given on the command
                          line, mkfs.xfs will attempt to choose a size such
                          that inode numbers will be < 32 bits.  If an inode
                          size is specified, or if a filesystem is
                          sufficiently large, mkfs.xfs will warn if this
                          will create inode numbers > 32 significant bits.
                   maxpct=value
                          This specifies the maximum percentage of space in
                          the filesystem that can be allocated to inodes.
                          The default value is 25% for filesystems under
                          1TB, 5% for filesystems under 50TB and 1% for
                          filesystems over 50TB.
                          In the default inode allocation mode, inode blocks
                          are chosen such that inode numbers will not exceed
                          32 bits, which restricts the inode blocks to the
                          lower portion of the filesystem. The data block
                          allocator will avoid these low blocks to
                          accommodate the specified maxpct, so a high value
                          may result in a filesystem with nothing but inodes
                          in a significant portion of the lower blocks of
                          the filesystem.  (This restriction is not present
                          when the filesystem is mounted with the inode64
                          option on 64-bit platforms).
                          Setting the value to 0 means that essentially all
                          of the filesystem can become inode blocks, subject
                          to inode32 restrictions.
                          This value can be modified with xfs_growfs(8).
                   align[=value]
                          This is used to specify that inode allocation is
                          or is not aligned. The value is either 0 or 1,
                          with 1 signifying that inodes are allocated
                          aligned.  If the value is omitted, 1 is assumed.
                          The default is that inodes are aligned.  Aligned
                          inode access is normally more efficient than
                          unaligned access; alignment must be established at
                          the time the filesystem is created, since inodes
                          are allocated at that time.  This option can be
                          used to turn off inode alignment when the
                          filesystem needs to be mountable by a version of
                          IRIX that does not have the inode alignment
                          feature (any release of IRIX before 6.2, and IRIX
                          6.2 without XFS patches).
                   attr=value
                          This is used to specify the version of extended
                          attribute inline allocation policy to be used.  By
                          default, this is 2, which uses an efficient
                          algorithm for managing the available inline inode
                          space between attribute and extent data.
                          The previous version 1, which has fixed regions
                          for attribute and extent data, is kept for
                          backwards compatibility with kernels older than
                          version 2.6.16.
                   projid32bit[=value]
                          This is used to enable 32bit quota project
                          identifiers. The value is either 0 or 1, with 1
                          signifying that 32bit projid are to be enabled.
                          If the value is omitted, 1 is assumed.  (This
                          default changed in release version 3.2.0.)
                   sparse[=value]
                          Enable sparse inode chunk allocation. The value is
                          either 0 or 1, with 1 signifying that sparse
                          allocation is enabled.  If the value is omitted, 1
                          is assumed. Sparse inode allocation is disabled by
                          default. This feature is only available for
                          filesystems formatted with -m crc=1.
                          When enabled, sparse inode allocation allows the
                          filesystem to allocate smaller than the standard
                          64-inode chunk when free space is severely
                          limited. This feature is useful for filesystems
                          that might fragment free space over time such that
                          no free extents are large enough to accommodate a
                          chunk of 64 inodes. Without this feature enabled,
                          inode allocations can fail with out of space
                          errors under severe fragmented free space
                          conditions.
       -l log_section_options
              These options specify the location, size, and other parameters
              of the log section of the filesystem. The valid
              log_section_options are:
                   internal[=value]
                          This is used to specify that the log section is a
                          piece of the data section instead of being another
                          device or logical volume. The value is either 0 or
                          1, with 1 signifying that the log is internal. If
                          the value is omitted, 1 is assumed.
                   logdev=device
                          This is used to specify that the log section
                          should reside on the device separate from the data
                          section. The internal=1 and logdev options are
                          mutually exclusive.
                   size=value
                          This is used to specify the size of the log
                          section.
                          If the log is contained within the data section
                          and size isn't specified, mkfs.xfs will try to
                          select a suitable log size depending on the size
                          of the filesystem.  The actual logsize depends on
                          the filesystem block size and the directory block
                          size.
                          Otherwise, the size suboption is only needed if
                          the log section of the filesystem should occupy
                          less space than the size of the special file. The
                          value is specified in bytes or blocks, with a b
                          suffix meaning multiplication by the filesystem
                          block size, as described above. The overriding
                          minimum value for size is 512 blocks.  With some
                          combinations of filesystem block size, inode size,
                          and directory block size, the minimum log size is
                          larger than 512 blocks.
                   version=value
                          This specifies the version of the log. The current
                          default is 2, which allows for larger log buffer
                          sizes, as well as supporting stripe-aligned log
                          writes (see the sunit and su options, below).
                          The previous version 1, which is limited to 32k
                          log buffers and does not support stripe-aligned
                          writes, is kept for backwards compatibility with
                          very old 2.4 kernels.
                   sunit=value
                          This specifies the alignment to be used for log
                          writes. The value has to be specified in 512-byte
                          block units. Use the su suboption to specify the
                          log stripe unit size in bytes.  Log writes will be
                          aligned on this boundary, and rounded up to this
                          boundary.  This gives major improvements in
                          performance on some configurations such as
                          software RAID5 when the sunit is specified as the
                          filesystem block size.  The equivalent byte value
                          must be a multiple of the filesystem block size.
                          Version 2 logs are automatically selected if the
                          log sunit suboption is specified.
                          The su suboption is an alternative to using sunit.
                   su=value
                          This is used to specify the log stripe. The value
                          has to be specified in bytes, (usually using the s
                          or b suffixes). This value must be a multiple of
                          the filesystem block size.  Version 2 logs are
                          automatically selected if the log su suboption is
                          specified.
                   lazy-count=value
                          This changes the method of logging various
                          persistent counters in the superblock.  Under
                          metadata intensive workloads, these counters are
                          updated and logged frequently enough that the
                          superblock updates become a serialization point in
                          the filesystem. The value can be either 0 or 1.
                          With lazy-count=1, the superblock is not modified
                          or logged on every change of the persistent
                          counters. Instead, enough information is kept in
                          other parts of the filesystem to be able to
                          maintain the persistent counter values without
                          needed to keep them in the superblock.  This gives
                          significant improvements in performance on some
                          configurations.  The default value is 1 (on) so
                          you must specify lazy-count=0 if you want to
                          disable this feature for older kernels which don't
                          support it.
       -n naming_options
              These options specify the version and size parameters for the
              naming (directory) area of the filesystem. The valid
              naming_options are:
                   size=value | log=value
                          The block size is specified either as a value in
                          bytes with size=, or as a base two logarithm value
                          with log=.  The block size must be a power of 2
                          and cannot be less than the filesystem block size.
                          The default size value for version 2 directories
                          is 4096 bytes (4 KiB), unless the filesystem block
                          size is larger than 4096, in which case the
                          default value is the filesystem block size.  For
                          version 1 directories the block size is the same
                          as the filesystem block size.
                   version=value
                          The naming (directory) version value can be either
                          2 or 'ci', defaulting to 2 if unspecified.  With
                          version 2 directories, the directory block size
                          can be any power of 2 size from the filesystem
                          block size up to 65536.
                          The version=ci option enables ASCII only case-
                          insensitive filename lookup and version 2
                          directories. Filenames are case-preserving, that
                          is, the names are stored in directories using the
                          case they were created with.
                          Note: Version 1 directories are not supported.
                   ftype=value
                          This feature allows the inode type to be stored in
                          the directory structure so that the readdir(3) and
                          getdents(2) do not need to look up the inode to
                          determine the inode type.
                          The value is either 0 or 1, with 1 signifying that
                          filetype information will be stored in the
                          directory structure.  The default value is 1.
                          When CRCs are enabled (the default), the ftype
                          functionality is always enabled, and cannot be
                          turned off.
       -p protofile
              If the optional -p protofile argument is given, mkfs.xfs uses
              protofile as a prototype file and takes its directions from
              that file.  The blocks and inodes specifiers in the protofile
              are provided for backwards compatibility, but are otherwise
              unused.  The syntax of the protofile is defined by a number of
              tokens separated by spaces or newlines. Note that the line
              numbers are not part of the syntax but are meant to help you
              in the following discussion of the file contents.

              Line 1 is a dummy string.  (It was formerly the bootfilename.)
              It is present for backward compatibility; boot blocks are not
              used on SGI systems.
              Note that some string of characters must be present as the
              first line of the proto file to cause it to be parsed
              correctly; the value of this string is immaterial since it is
              ignored.
              Line 2 contains two numeric values (formerly the numbers of
              blocks and inodes).  These are also merely for backward
              compatibility: two numeric values must appear at this point
              for the proto file to be correctly parsed, but their values
              are immaterial since they are ignored.
              The lines 3 through 11 specify the files and directories you
              want to include in this filesystem. Line 3 defines the root
              directory. Other directories and files that you want in the
              filesystem are indicated by lines 4 through 6 and lines 8
              through 10. Line 11 contains symbolic link syntax.
              Notice the dollar sign ($) syntax on line 7. This syntax
              directs the mkfs.xfs command to terminate the branch of the
              filesystem it is currently on and then continue from the
              directory specified by the next line, in this case line 8.  It
              must be the last character on a line.  The colon on line 12
              introduces a comment; all characters up until the following
              newline are ignored.  Note that this means you cannot have a
              file in a prototype file whose name contains a colon.  The $
              on lines 13 and 14 end the process, since no additional
              specifications follow.
              File specifications provide the following:
                * file mode
                * user ID
                * group ID
                * the file's beginning contents
              A 6-character string defines the mode for a file. The first
              character of this string defines the file type. The character
              range for this first character is -bcdpl.  A file may be a
              regular file, a block special file, a character special file,
              directory files, named pipes (first-in, first out files), and
              symbolic links.  The second character of the mode string is
              used to specify setuserID mode, in which case it is u.  If
              setuserID mode is not specified, the second character is -.
              The third character of the mode string is used to specify the
              setgroupID mode, in which case it is g.  If setgroupID mode is
              not specified, the third character is -.  The remaining
              characters of the mode string are a three digit octal number.
              This octal number defines the owner, group, and other read,
              write, and execute permissions for the file, respectively.
              For more information on file permissions, see the chmod(1)
              command.
              Following the mode character string are two decimal number
              tokens that specify the user and group IDs of the file's
              owner.
              In a regular file, the next token specifies the pathname from
              which the contents and size of the file are copied.  In a
              block or character special file, the next token are two
              decimal numbers that specify the major and minor device
              numbers.  When a file is a symbolic link, the next token
              specifies the contents of the link.
              When the file is a directory, the mkfs.xfs command creates the
              entries dot (.) and dot-dot (..) and then reads the list of
              names and file specifications in a recursive manner for all of
              the entries in the directory. A scan of the protofile is
              always terminated with the dollar ( $ ) token.
       -q     Quiet option. Normally mkfs.xfs prints the parameters of the
              filesystem to be constructed; the -q flag suppresses this.
       -r realtime_section_options
              These options specify the location, size, and other parameters
              of the real-time section of the filesystem. The valid
              realtime_section_options are:
                   rtdev=device
                          This is used to specify the device which should
                          contain the real-time section of the filesystem.
                          The suboption value is the name of a block device.
                   extsize=value
                          This is used to specify the size of the blocks in
                          the real-time section of the filesystem. This
                          value must be a multiple of the filesystem block
                          size. The minimum allowed size is the filesystem
                          block size or 4 KiB (whichever is larger); the
                          default size is the stripe width for striped
                          volumes or 64 KiB for non-striped volumes; the
                          maximum allowed size is 1 GiB. The real-time
                          extent size should be carefully chosen to match
                          the parameters of the physical media used.
                   size=value
                          This is used to specify the size of the real-time
                          section.  This suboption is only needed if the
                          real-time section of the filesystem should occupy
                          less space than the size of the partition or
                          logical volume containing the section.
                   noalign
                          This option disables stripe size detection,
                          enforcing a realtime device with no stripe
                          geometry.
       -s sector_size
              This option specifies the fundamental sector size of the
              filesystem.  The sector_size is specified either as a value in
              bytes with size=value or as a base two logarithm value with
              log=value.  The default sector_size is 512 bytes. The minimum
              value for sector size is 512; the maximum is 32768 (32 KiB).
              The sector_size must be a power of 2 size and cannot be made
              larger than the filesystem block size.
              To specify any options on the command line in units of
              sectors, this option must be specified first so that the
              sector size is applied consistently to all options.
       -L label
              Set the filesystem label.  XFS filesystem labels can be at
              most 12 characters long; if label is longer than 12
              characters, mkfs.xfs will not proceed with creating the
              filesystem.  Refer to the mount(8) and xfs_admin(8) manual
              entries for additional information.
       -N     Causes the file system parameters to be printed out without
              really creating the file system.
       -K     Do not attempt to discard blocks at mkfs time.
       -V     Prints the version number and exits.
