| The attribute names can be up to 256 bytes in length, terminated by the first 0 byte. The intent is that they be printable ASCII (or other character set) names for the attribute. The values can be up to 64KB of arbitrary binary data. | |

| The VFS imposes limitations that an attribute names is limited to 255 | |
| bytes and an attribute value is limited to 64 kB. | |
| In the current ext2, ext3, and ext4 filesystem implementations, the | |
| total bytes used by the names and values of all of a files extended | |
| attributes must fit in a single filesystem block (1024, 2048 or 4096 | |
| bytes, depending on the block size specified when the filesystem was | |
| created). |
