0004 Description:
0005                 The /sys/fs/ocfs2 directory contains knobs used by the
0006                 ocfs2-tools to interact with the filesystem.

0011 Description:
0012                 The /sys/fs/ocfs2/max_locking_protocol file displays version
0013                 of ocfs2 locking supported by the filesystem.  This version
0014                 covers how ocfs2 uses distributed locking between cluster
0015                 nodes.
0016 
0017                 The protocol version has a major and minor number.  Two
0018                 cluster nodes can interoperate if they have an identical
0019                 major number and an overlapping minor number - thus,
0020                 a node with version 1.10 can interoperate with a node
0021                 sporting version 1.8, as long as both use the 1.8 protocol.
0022 
0023                 Reading from this file returns a single line, the major
0024                 number and minor number joined by a period, eg "1.10".
0025 
0026                 This file is read-only.  The value is compiled into the
0027                 driver.

0032 Description:
0033                 The /sys/fs/ocfs2/loaded_cluster_plugins file describes
0034                 the available plugins to support ocfs2 cluster operation.
0035                 A cluster plugin is required to use ocfs2 in a cluster.
0036                 There are currently two available plugins:
0037 
0038                 * 'o2cb' - The classic o2cb cluster stack that ocfs2 has
0039                         used since its inception.
0040                 * 'user' - A plugin supporting userspace cluster software
0041                         in conjunction with fs/dlm.
0042 
0043                 Reading from this file returns the names of all loaded
0044                 plugins, one per line.
0045 
0046                 This file is read-only.  Its contents may change as
0047                 plugins are loaded or removed.

0052 Description:
0053                 The /sys/fs/ocfs2/active_cluster_plugin displays which
0054                 cluster plugin is currently in use by the filesystem.
0055                 The active plugin will appear in the loaded_cluster_plugins
0056                 file as well.  Only one plugin can be used at a time.
0057 
0058                 Reading from this file returns the name of the active plugin
0059                 on a single line.
0060 
0061                 This file is read-only.  Which plugin is active depends on
0062                 the cluster stack in use.  The contents may change
0063                 when all filesystems are unmounted and the cluster stack
0064                 is changed.

0069 Description:
0070                 The /sys/fs/ocfs2/cluster_stack file contains the name
0071                 of current ocfs2 cluster stack.  This value is set by
0072                 userspace tools when bringing the cluster stack online.
0073 
0074                 Cluster stack names are 4 characters in length.
0075 
0076                 When the 'o2cb' cluster stack is used, the 'o2cb' cluster
0077                 plugin is active.  All other cluster stacks use the 'user'
0078                 cluster plugin.
0079 
0080                 Reading from this file returns the name of the current
0081                 cluster stack on a single line.
0082 
0083                 Writing a new stack name to this file changes the current
0084                 cluster stack unless there are mounted ocfs2 filesystems.
0085                 If there are mounted filesystems, attempts to change the
0086                 stack return an error.
