help
Ext4dev is a predecessor filesystem of the next generation
extended fs ext4, based on ext3 filesystem code. It will be
renamed ext4 fs later, once ext4dev is mature and stabilized.
Unlike the change from ext2 filesystem to ext3 filesystem,
the on-disk format of ext4dev is not the same as ext3 any more:
it is based on extent maps and it supports 48-bit physical block
numbers. These combined on-disk format changes will allow
ext4dev/ext4 to handle more than 16 TB filesystem volumes --
a hard limit that ext3 cannot overcome without changing the
on-disk format.
Other than extent maps and 48-bit block numbers, ext4dev also is
likely to have other new features such as persistent preallocation,
high resolution time stamps, and larger file support etc. These
features will be added to ext4dev gradually.
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
module will be called ext4dev. Be aware, however, that the filesystem
of your root partition (the one containing the directory /) cannot
be compiled as a module, and so this could be dangerous.
If unsure, say N.

Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated with inodes by
the kernel or by users (see the attr(5) manual page, or visit
<http://acl.bestbits.at/> for details).
If unsure, say N.
You need this for POSIX ACL support on ext4dev/ext4.

POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and
groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme.

Linux website <http://acl.bestbits.at/>.

help
Security labels support alternative access control models
implemented by security modules like SELinux. This option
enables an extended attribute handler for file security
labels in the ext4dev/ext4 filesystem.
If you are not using a security module that requires using
extended attributes for file security labels, say N.
