From 53136b205486590aa035a02d7aaab63f12cfbc22 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Darrick J. Wong" Date: Wed, 30 Jul 2025 17:51:12 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] mke2fs: don't print warnings about dax to stderr mke2fs prints a warning to standard error if the target device supports fsdax but the fs block size doesn't match the page size. This isn't an error since we don't abort the format and the filesystem will work just fine if the user doesn't care about fsdax. Therefore, print the warning to stdout, not stderr.
