FYI.
Initial support for fallocate-based pre-allocation in
xfs_io for testing. This currently only works on ia64 because
of the hard coded syscall number and will require autoconf
magic to conditionally compile in this support.
This allows simple command-line based testing of fallocate
based allocation such as:
# ~/xfs_io -f -c "falloc_resvsp 0 1024k" -c "bmap -vp" -c stat /mnt/scratch/fred
/mnt/scratch/fred:
EXT: FILE-OFFSET BLOCK-RANGE AG AG-OFFSET TOTAL FLAGS
0: [0..2047]: 96..2143 0 (96..2143) 2048 10000
fd.path = "/mnt/scratch/fred"
fd.flags = non-sync,non-direct,read-write
stat.ino = 131
stat.type = regular file
stat.size = 0
stat.blocks = 2048
fsxattr.xflags = 0x2 [-p------------]
fsxattr.projid = 0
fsxattr.extsize = 0
fsxattr.nextents = 1
fsxattr.naextents = 0
dioattr.mem = 0x200
dioattr.miniosz = 512
dioattr.maxiosz = 2147483136
Or more complex cases:
# ~/xfs_io -f \
> -c "falloc_allocsp 0 1024k" \
> -c "unresvsp 32k 32k" \
> -c "unresvsp 128k 64k" \
> -c "unresvsp 512k 256k" \
> -c"pwrite 0 16k" \
> -c "pwrite 96k 128k" \
> -c "pwrite 640k 384k" \
> -c "bmap -vp" \
> -c "falloc_resvsp 0 1024k" \
> -c "bmap -vvp" /mnt/scratch/fred

FLAG Values:
010000 Unwritten preallocated extent
001000 Doesn't begin on stripe unit
000100 Doesn't end on stripe unit
000010 Doesn't begin on stripe width
000001 Doesn't end on stripe width
Yes, that looks like it filled all the holes properly, and the allocator
allocated the right holes on disk to merge adjacent extents when hole
filling. ;)
