Since block device (See commit3c20917120("block/bdev: enable large folio support for large logical block sizes")) and page cache (See commitab95d23bab("filemap: allocate mapping_min_order folios in the page cache")) has the ability to have a minimum order when allocating folio, and ext4 has supported large folio in commit7ac67301e8("ext4: enable large folio for regular file"), now add support for block_size > PAGE_SIZE in ext4. set_blocksize() -> bdev_validate_blocksize() already validates the block size, so ext4_load_super() does not need to perform additional checks. Here we only need to add the FS_LBS bit to fs_flags. In addition, block sizes larger than the page size are currently supported only when CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is enabled. To make this explicit, a blocksize_gt_pagesize entry has been added under /sys/fs/ext4/feature/, indicating whether bs > ps is supported. This allows mke2fs to check the interface and determine whether a warning should be issued when formatting a filesystem with block size larger than the page size.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
