The code just happens to be the simplest in that case (see below). > @@ -255,7 +334,18 @@ ext4_dax_write_iter(struct kiocb *iocb, struct iov_iter *from) > if (ret) > goto out; > > + offset = iocb->ki_pos; > ret = dax_iomap_rw(iocb, from, &ext4_iomap_ops); > + if (ret > 0 && iocb->ki_pos > i_size_read(inode)) > + error = ext4_handle_inode_extension(inode, offset, ret, > + iov_iter_count(from)); You need to sample iov_iter_count(from) before calling dax_iomap_rw(). At this point iov_iter_count(from) is just what's left in the iter after writing what we could. Also I don't think the condition iocb->ki_pos > i_size_read(inode) is correct here. Because it may happen that offset + count > i_size so we allocate some blocks beyond i_size but then we manage to copy only less so offset + ret == iocb->ki_pos <= i_size and you will not call ext4_handle_inode_extension() to truncate allocated blocks beyond i_size. So I'd just call ext4_handle_inode_extension() unconditionally like: error = ext4_handle_inode_extension(inode, offset, ret, len); and have a quick check at the beginning of that function to avoid starting transaction when there isn't anything to do. Something like: /* * DIO and DAX writes get exclusion from truncate (i_rwsem) and * page writeback (i_rwsem and flushing all dirty pages). */ WARN_ON_ONCE(i_size_read(inode) != EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize); if (offset + count <= i_size_read(inode)) return 0; if (len < 0) goto truncate; ... do the heavylifting with transaction start, inode size update, and orphan handling... if (truncate) { truncate: ext4_truncate_failed_write(inode); orphan_del: /* * If the truncate operation failed early the inode * may still be on the orphan list. In that case, we * need try remove the inode from the linked list in * memory. */ if (inode->i_nlink) ext4_orphan_del(NULL, inode); } > + > + if (ret < 0) > + error = ext4_handle_failed_inode_extension(inode, > + iocb->ki_pos); > + > + if (error) > + ret = error; > out: > inode_unlock(inode); > if (ret > 0) Honza -- Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxxx> SUSE Labs, CR
