[RFC PATCH v3 22/26] ext4: writeback partial blocks before zero range

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

 



From: Zhang Yi <yi.zhang@xxxxxxxxxx>

If we zero partial blocks, iomap_zero_iter() will skip zeroing out if
the srcmap is IOMAP_UNWRITTEN, it works fine in xfs because this type
means the block is pure unwritten, doesn't contain any delayed data,
but in ext4, IOMAP_UNWRITTEN may contain delayed data. For now we cannot
simply change the meaning of this flag in ext4, so just writeback
partial blocks from the beginning, make sure it becomes IOMAP_MAPPED
before zeroing out.
