Is > this intentional? If the group is NOT last group, or (start+len) is aligned to the EXT4_BLOCK_PER_GROUP() boundary we will trim all blocks in this particular block group. Otherwise we will know how much we need to trim in this group to satisfy user request if (len >= EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb)) len -= (EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) - first_block); else last_block = len; because we do keep track of how many block we need to trim by decreasing len. > > Also, it looks like there's nothing to check for the last blockgroup, > where the last block might be less than a grpblk_t offset of > EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP()? This is not a problem, because when traversing the bitmap we will hit the end of the group anyway, because those blocks (out of filesystem) are marked as used in the bitmap and hence: start = mb_find_next_zero_bit(bitmap, max, start); if (start >= max) break; will end the traversing without any attempt to trim blocks out of filesystem boundary. > > - Ted > -Lukas -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
