I've done some testing with your cleanups applied so that those can go in in this merge window. The result can be found here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gfs2/linux-gfs2.git/log/?h=for-next.cleanups Patch "gfs2: implement gfs2_block_zero_range using iomap_zero_range" isn't quite ready: the gfs2 iomap operations don't handle IOMAP_ZERO correctly so far, and that needs to be fixed first. The actual buffer head removal will obviously have to wait a little longer because of the required infrastructure changes, but also because that still needs a lot more review and testing work. > This has only seen basic testing which ensured neither 4k or 1k blocksize > in ordered mode regressed vs the xfstests baseline, although that baseline > tends to look pretty bleak. Some of the tests assume that the filesystem supports unwritten extents, trusted xattrs, the usrquota / grpquota / prjquota mount options. There shouldn't be a huge number of failing tests beyond that, but I know things aren't perfect. > The series is to be applied on top of my "lift the xfs writepage code > into iomap v2" series. Again, thanks a lot for the patches! Andreas
