Well, I'd say Wilcox is kinda correct here.

Btrfs uses the name "sector size" to indicate the minimal unit, aka, the
blocksize of all the other fses.

Not sure if we will even rename the whole sector size to block size in
the future, it looks like a huge work to do.


However there is another problem related to the btrfs block size (aka,
"sector size").
Our block size starts at 4K, ends at 64K, and we do not yet support
block size > page size.

For systems with 64K page size, although we have the support for block
size < page size, I have added an artificial limits, that only 4K block
size and page size is supported.


So even if we added btrfs block size support, it won't really work
except 4K and page size (at least for now).

Thanks,
