[PATCH 2/2] libext2fs: try to always use PUNCH_HOLE for unix_discard

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

 



From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx>

Now that block devices support PUNCH_HOLE via fallocate, refactor the
unix_discard code into a helper that will always try to use it.  For
block devices we can fall back to BLKDISCARD, but we prefer to use
fallocate because it will always invalidate the page cache of the zeroed
region.
