Add ext4 metadata checksums #1211

Open agherzan opened 5 years ago

agherzan commented 5 years ago

We want to start having metadata checksums on all our ext4 filesystems and enable it at runtime.

See: https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Metadata_Checksums https://lwn.net/Articles/485566/ https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ext4

Investigate the performance impact as well and consider upgrading the already deployed devices.

Also worth checking https://github.com/resin-os/meta-resin/issues/1207 during investigation perhaps
