Ah. I missed that nuance. I had thought the incompatibility was absolute. :/ The manpage for mkfs.xfs may need updating for the inode mode (unless mine is old): ----------------snip------------------ "Note: the filesystem DAX mount option ( -o dax ) is incom‐ patible with reflink-enabled XFS filesystems. To use filesystem DAX with XFS, specify the -m reflink=0 option to mkfs.xfs to disable the reflink feature." ------------------------------------- Thanks- Bill
