[PATCH v6 01/11] ext4: reorder map.m_flags checks within ext4_iomap_begin()

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

 



For the direct I/O changes that follow in this patch series, we need
to accommodate for the case where the block mapping flags passed
through to ext4_map_blocks() result in m_flags having both
EXT4_MAP_MAPPED and EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN bits set. In order for any
allocated unwritten extents to be converted correctly in the
->end_io() handler, the iomap->type must be set to IOMAP_UNWRITTEN for
cases where the EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN bit has been set within
m_flags. Hence the reason why we need to reshuffle this conditional
statement around.

This change is a no-op for DAX as the block mapping flags passed
through to ext4_map_blocks() i.e. EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CREATE_ZERO never
results in both EXT4_MAP_MAPPED and EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN being set at
once.
