[PATCH 0/4] xfsdump: update to use fallocate

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

 



Hi all,

This is a series to update the "create file and preallocate blocks"
code in xfs_restore.

The first patch refactors the existing copy-pasta into a single helper
function to create and preallocate space in files, as well as removing
the totally broken ALLOCSP code.

The next two patches fix unchecked return values and insufficient
unsupported-ioctl code.

The final patch upgrades xfs_restore to try fallocate before RESVSP
simply because it is the newer API.

This is an extraordinary way to destroy everything.  Enjoy!
Comments and questions are, as always, welcome.
