block allocation

["Vineet Agarwal" <checkout.vineet@xxxxxxxxx>]

hello everybody,

I want to allocate few blocks from a blockgroup in ext2 within a range of offset specified by user. Is it possible of doing so if yes then can someone please explain.As i know balloc.c and ialloc.c are responsible for it and they work on entire file system can i somehow manipulate it for ceratin ranges.

For Ex
let say i provide a range 100 - 3000. Can i allocate few blocks within this range .

Thanking you
