[RFC PATCH v4 28/34] ext4: writeback partial blocks before zeroing out 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 the
IOMAP_UNWRITTEN srcmap, it works fine in xfs because this type means the
block is pure unwritten and doesn't contain any delayed data. But it
doesn't work in ext4, because IOMAP_UNWRITTEN may contain delayed data
in ext4. For now it's hard to unify the meaning of this flag, so just
fix it by writeback partial blocks before zeroing out.
