+Subject: [PATCH] ext_attr.c: fix adding multiple xattrs during image creation
+
+http://www.nongnu.org/ext2-doc/ext2.html#CONTRIB-EXTENDED-ATTRIBUTES
+contains the small snippet that "The entry descriptors are sorted by
+attribute name, so that two extended attribute blocks can be compared
+efficiently".
+
+The libext2fs code in e2fsprogs needs to be taught about this minor
+sorting detail. Otherwise creating an image with "mkfs.ext -d" from a
+filesystem that reports xattrs in listxattr() in an order that does
+not match the expected order will lead to an image where listxattr()
+reports all xattrs, but reading some values fails with ENODATA.
+
