least in the AMD64 branch.
I guess as a 'universal disk format' for all operating systems, it is
bound to be less feature rich than something tailored to linux. It was
specifically developed with RW-media in mind and probably isn't at the
top of fs performance for RAM-media.
UDF is incredibly feature rich. The kernel implementation appears
buggy; I can crash the kernel using a loopback device. I've intended to
go through the code for quite some time now.
