[PATCH RFC 6/8] ext4: Add support for FALLOC_FL_PROVISION

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Sarthak Kukreti <sarthakkukreti@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Once ext4 is done mapping blocks for an fallocate() request, send
out an FALLOC_FL_PROVISION request to the underlying layer to
ensure that the space is provisioned for the newly allocated extent
or indirect blocks.
