ext4 features — Linux Kernel

Hello,
I would like to know which new features are planed to be incorported by
ext4. So far I only read about supporting bigger filesystems to fit
recent hardware developments. So are there any other big goals for ext4?

What I personally would like to see most in ext4 are

        * checksums for data
        * and snapshots on filesystem basis

But I guess that this is way out of scope for ext4.

        Thomas
