The dir_nlink feature has been enabled by default for new ext4 filesystems since e2fsprogs-1.41 in 2008, and was automatically enabled by the kernel for older ext4 filesystems since the dir_nlink feature was added with ext4 in kernel 2.6.28+ when the subdirectory count exceeded EXT4_LINK_MAX-1. Automatically adding the file system features such as dir_nlink is generally frowned upon, since it could cause the file system to not be mountable on older kernel, thus preventing the administrator from rolling back to an older kernel if necessary. In this case, the administrator might also want to disable the feature because glibc's fts_read() function does not correctly optimize directory traversal for directories that use st_nlinks field of 1 to indicate that the number of links in the directory are not tracked by the file system, and could fail to traverse the full directory hierarchy. Fortunately, in the past ten years very few users have complained about incomplete file system traversal by glibc's fts_read(). This commit also changes ext4_inc_count() to allow i_nlinks to reach the full EXT4_LINK_MAX links on the parent directory (including "." and "..") before changing i_links_count to be 1.
