file system sector size?

[Guangyu Sun]

Hi,

As far as I know sector size comes with the storage device and cannot be
changed, while block size is set by file system.

However, mkfs.xfs has an option of setting sector size (-ssize=). What is
the purpose of having a sector size in the file system? Is this xfs
specific?

Thanks,
Guangyu
