2 tristate "Reiser4 (EXPERIMENTAL)"
3 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
10 Reiser4 is a filesystem that performs all filesystem operations
11 as atomic transactions, which means that it either performs a
12 write, or it does not, and in the event of a crash it does not
13 partially perform it or corrupt it.
15 It stores files in dancing trees, which are like balanced trees but
16 faster. It packs small files together so that they share blocks
17 without wasting space. This means you can use it to store really
18 small files. It also means that it saves you disk space. It avoids
19 hassling you with anachronisms like having a maximum number of
20 inodes, and wasting space if you use less than that number.
22 Reiser4 is a distinct filesystem type from reiserfs (V3).
23 It's therefore not possible to use reiserfs file systems
