reiserfs dynamic inode

All,
how does dynamic inode work for reiserfs? Is there a utility to increase the inode if need be? Thanks.

Re: reiserfs dynamic inode

As I understand it, reiser fs inode structure
is dynamically sized, besides the usual
information contains the file tails
(last filesize % blocksize bytes of the file)

Short files this exist entirely within the inode .

It appeared to me that the classic understanding
of an inode doesn't apply to reiserfs.
