It makes +allowances for indirect blocks for ext2 and ext3 file systems, but can be +used on files for any file system. +.PP +The +.B filefrag +program initially attempts to get the +extent information using FIEMAP ioctl which is more efficient and faster. +If FIEMAP is not supported then filefrag will fall back to using FIBMAP. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.B \-B +Force the use of the older FIBMAP ioctl instead of the FIEMAP ioctl for +testing purposes. +.TP +.BI \-b blocksize +Use +.I blocksize +in bytes, or with [KMG] suffix, up to 1GB for output instead of the +file system blocksize. For compatibility with earlier versions of +.BR filefrag , +if +.I blocksize +is unspecified it defaults to 1024 bytes. Since +.I blocksize +is an optional argument, it must be added without any space after +.BR -b . +.TP +.B \-e +Print output in extent format, even for block-mapped files. +.TP +.B \-E +Display the contents of ext4's extent status cache. This feature is not +supported on all kernels, and is only supported on ext4 file systems. +.TP +.B \-k +Use 1024\-byte blocksize for output (identical to '\-b1024'). +.TP +.B -P +Pre-load the ext4 extent status cache for the file. This is not +supported on all kernels, and is only supported on ext4 file systems. +.TP +.B \-s +Sync the file before requesting the mapping. +.TP +.B \-v +Be verbose when checking for file fragmentation. +.TP +.B \-V +Print version number of program and library. If given twice, also +print the FIEMAP flags that are understood by the current version. +.TP +.B \-x +Display mapping of extended attributes. +.TP +.B \-X +Display extent block numbers in hexadecimal format. +.SH AUTHOR +.B filefrag +was written by Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>. |
