[PATCH v1 06/36] ext4: snapshot hooks - move data blocks

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

 



From: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Before every regular file data buffer write, the function
ext4_get_block() is called to map the buffer to disk. We add a
new function ext4_get_block_mow() which is called when we want to
snapshot the blocks. We use this hook to call the snapshot API
snapshot_get_move_access(), to optionally move the block
to the snapshot file.

+	 * needed and allocator will use blocks from the preallocations.As
+	 * a result, the event above happens.
+	 *
+	 *
+	 * For now, all preallocations are discarded.
+	 *
+	 * Please refer to code and comments about preallocation in
+	 * mballoc.c for more information.
