+
+The following mount options are supported:
+
+iocharset=name	Character set to use for converting from Unicode to
+		ASCII.  The default is compiled into the kernel as
+		CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT.  Use iocharset=utf8 for UTF8
+		translations.  This requires CONFIG_NLS_UTF8 to be set
+		in the kernel .config file.
+
+resize=value	Resize the volume to <value> blocks.  JFS only supports
+		growing a volume, not shrinking it.  This option is only
+		valid during a remount, when the volume is mounted
+		read-write.  The resize keyword with no value will grow
+		the volume to the full size of the partition.
+
+JFS TODO list:
+
+Plans for our near term development items
+
+   - enhance support for logfile on dedicated partition
+   - get access control list functionality operational
+   - get extended attributes functionality operational
+
+Longer term work items
+
+   - implement defrag utility, for online defragmenting
+   - add quota support
+   - add support for block sizes (512,1024,2048)
+
+Please send bugs, comments, cards and letters to linuxjfs@us.ibm.com.
