Bug#346511: ext3 online resizing doesn't work



Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.15-1

  I can't get online resizing of ext3 to work.  The kernel spits out

    EXT3-fs: Unrecognized mount option "resize=1572864" or missing value

  when I try to remount the filesystem, supplying the "resize" option.
 Documentation/filesystems/ext3.txt says it should be there, and from
 what I can understand of fs/ext3/super.c and its parse_options() the
 "resize" option is supposed to be understood by the kernel.  Am I doing
 something wrong?  I have created the file system using mkfs -E resize.
 Resizing JFS (using the exact same procedure) works just fine.
