I will check this. > So I took a look at this. Here is what I think - So this is useful of-course when we have a large folio. Because otherwise it's just one block at a time for each folio. This is not a problem once FS buffered-io handling code moves to iomap (because we can then enable large folio support to it). However, this would still require us to pass a folio to ->map_blocks call to determine the size of the folio (which I am not saying can't be done but just stating my observations here). Now coming to implementing validation seq check. I am hoping, it should be straight forward at least for ext2, because it mostly just have to protect against truncate operation (which can change the block mapping)... ...ok so here is the PoC for seq counter check for ext2. Next let me try to see if we can lift this up from the FS side to iomap - >From 86b7bdf79107c3d0a4f37583121d7c136db1bc5c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Ritesh Harjani (IBM)" <ritesh.list@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [PATCH] ext2: Implement seq check for mapping multiblocks in ->map_blocks This implements inode block seq counter (ib_seq) which helps in validating whether the cached wpc (struct iomap_writepage_ctx) still has the valid entries or not. Block mapping can get changed say due to a racing truncate.
