DESCRIPTION <\/a> <\/h2>\n

mkfs.f2fs<\/b><\/i> is used to create a f2fs file system (usually in a disk partition). device<\/i> is the special file corresponding to the device (e.g. \/dev\/sdXX<\/i>). sectors<\/i> is optionally given for specifing the filesystem size.<\/p>\n

The exit code returned by mkfs.f2fs<\/b> is 0 on success and 1 on failure.<\/p>\n

OPTIONS <\/a> <\/h2>\n

\u2212a<\/b> heap-based-allocation<\/i><\/p>\n

Specify 1 or 0 to enable\/disable heap based block allocation policy. If the value is equal to 1, each of active log areas are initially assigned separately according to the whole volume size. The default value is 1.<\/p>\n

\u2212c<\/b> device-list<\/i><\/p>\n

Build f2fs with these additional comma separated devices, so that the user can see all the devices as one big volume. Supports up to 7 devices except meta device.<\/p>\n

\u2212d<\/b> debug-level<\/i><\/p>\n

Specify the level of debugging options. The default number is 0, which shows basic debugging messages.<\/p>\n

\u2212e<\/b> extension-list<\/i><\/p>\n

Specify a list of file extensions that f2fs will treat as cold files. The data of files with those extensions will be stored in the cold log. The default list includes most of the multimedia file extensions such as jpg, gif, mpeg, mkv, and so on.<\/p>\n

\u2212E<\/b> extension-list<\/i><\/p>\n

Specify a list of file extensions that f2fs will treat as hot files. The data of files with those extensions will be stored in the hot log. The default list includes database file extensions, such as db.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
<\/td>\n\n

\u2212f<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

Force overwrite when an existing filesystem is detected on the device. By default, mkfs.f2fs will not write to the device if it suspects that there is a filesystem or partition table on the device already.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n\n

\u2212g<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

<\/td>\n\n

\u2212o<\/b> overprovision-ratio-percentage<\/i><\/p>\n

Specify the percentage of the volume that will be used as overprovision area. This area is hidden to users, and utilized by F2FS cleaner. If not specified, the best number will be assigned automatically according to the partition size.<\/p>\n

\u2212O<\/b> feature-list<\/i><\/p>\n

Set additional features for the filesystem. Features are comma separated, and the flag can be repeated. The following features are supported:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2212z<\/b> #-of-sections-per-zone<\/i><\/p>\n
