I don't have any system with disk, I only use flashdisks with UBIFS 
filesystem.

The reason why I did this commit was because of a build failure reported 
by Kernel Build Robot, that's it.

Also note that powerpc doesn't have 128K pages. Only 4/16/64/256.

And for 256 it requires a special version of ld and binutils that I 
don't have.

I have a board where I can do 16k pages, but again that board has no disk.

Did Christophe say he had a 128K system to test on?

In mainline powerpc only supports 4K/16K/64K/256K.

AFAIK there's no arch with 128K page size support, but that's only based
on some grepping, maybe it's hidden somewhere.

cheers

I'm happy to test things on 16K in the future if you need me to :-)

So I'm not that concerned.

It's 128K page size that I'm a little concerned, and I have not machine

Hi Christophe,

I'm recently enhancing the subpage support for btrfs, and my current
branch should solve the problem for btrfs to support larger page sizes.

But unfortunately my current test environment can only provide page size
with 64K or 4K, no 16K or 128K/256K support.

Mind to test my new branch on 128K page size systems?

There are two platforms that can select 256K pages:
  - hexagon

Disable BTRFS when 256K page size is selected.

I'm OK to disable page size other than 4K, 16K, 32K, 64K for now.

Although for other reasons.

Not only for the BUILD_BUG_ON(), but for the fact that btrfs only
support 4K, 16K, 32K, 64K sectorsize, and requires PAGE_SIZE == sectorsize.

Although we're adding subpage support, the subpage support only comes
with 4K sectorsize on 64K page size.

Until variable length version is introduced, 256K/128K page size won't
be support.

Thus I'm fine to disable BTRFS for any arch outside of the supported
page sizes for now.

Thanks,
Qu
