This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled xfs: remove XFS_PREALLOC_SYNC to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: xfs-remove-xfs_prealloc_sync.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 562ab7efef31bd4458c90e038a0d630232e89b16 Author: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Mar 7 10:59:13 2023 -0800 xfs: remove XFS_PREALLOC_SYNC commit 472c6e46f589c26057596dcba160712a5b3e02c5 upstream. [partial backport for dependency - xfs_ioc_space() still uses XFS_PREALLOC_SYNC] Callers can acheive the same thing by calling xfs_log_force_inode() after making their modifications. There is no need for xfs_update_prealloc_flags() to do this. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
