As far as I can tell, that alignment is wrong. You can't just align "len". If "start" wasn't aligned, then just aligning "len" is wrong. And if start is guaranteed to be aligned, how? Also, the alignment itself is ugly as hell, doing > + len = (len + (1 << inode->i_blkbits) - 1) & > + ~((1 << inode->i_blkbits) - 1); > + map_end = start + len; When what you probably should have done is to do map_end = start + len; _before_ rounding 'start', and then after that you can now map 'start' and 'map_end' just using the regular "logical_to_blk" that you already use (up or down depending on whether the thing should be inclusive or exclusive of partial blocks). No? IOW, the whole thing should probably look something like sector_t start_blk, last_blk; start_blk = logical_to_blk(inode, start); last_blk = logical_to_blk(inode, start + len - 1); and you're done. Short, sweet, and to the point (note that "last_blk" really is the _last_ block, so if you want the length in blocks, it would be "last_blk - start_blk + 1").
