Yeah, others prefer shorter names but I try at least to maintain
consistent prefixes for namespacing.

<nod> I think it's pretty straightforward:

xfs_direct_cow_write_iomap_begin()
{
	ASSERT(flags & IOMAP_WRITE);
	ASSERT(flags & IOMAP_DIRECT);
	ASSERT(flags & IOMAP_ATOMIC_SW);

	if (xfs_is_shutdown(mp))
		return -EIO;

	/*
	 * Writes that span EOF might trigger an IO size update on
	 * completion, so consider them to be dirty for the purposes of
	 * O_DSYNC even if there is no other metadata changes pending or
	 * have been made here.
	 */
	if (offset + length > i_size_read(inode))
		iomap_flags |= IOMAP_F_DIRTY;

	lockmode = XFS_ILOCK_EXCL;
	error = xfs_ilock_for_iomap(ip, flags, &lockmode);
	if (error)
		return error;

	error = xfs_bmapi_read(ip, offset_fsb, end_fsb - offset_fsb,
			&imap, &nimaps, 0);
	if (error)
		goto out_unlock;

	error = xfs_reflink_allocate_cow(ip, &imap, &cmap, &shared,
			&lockmode, true, true);
	if (error)
		goto out_unlock;

	endoff = XFS_FSB_TO_B(mp, cmap.br_startoff + cmap.br_blockcount);
	trace_xfs_iomap_found(ip, offset, endoff - offset, XFS_COW_FORK,
			&cmap);
	if (imap.br_startblock != HOLESTARTBLOCK) {
		seq = xfs_iomap_inode_sequence(ip, 0);
		error = xfs_bmbt_to_iomap(ip, srcmap, &imap, flags, 0,
				seq);
		if (error)
			goto out_unlock;
	}
	seq = xfs_iomap_inode_sequence(ip, IOMAP_F_SHARED);
	xfs_iunlock(ip, lockmode);
	return xfs_bmbt_to_iomap(ip, iomap, &cmap, flags,

out_unlock:
	if (lockmode)
		xfs_iunlock(ip, lockmode);
	return error;
}
