XFS ... or ext4: # xfs_io -Ff -c "falloc 0 1m" -c "pwrite 0 512k" testfile; /root/fiemap-test testfile wrote 524288/524288 bytes at offset 0 512 KiB, 128 ops; 0.0000 sec (161.342 MiB/sec and 41303.6463 ops/sec) start 0 length -1 flags 0x0 count 32 ext: 0 logical: [ 0.. 255] phys: 34048.. 34303 flags: 0x801 tot: 256 # uname -r 2.6.39-0.rc3.git2.0.fc16.x86_64 Above is on ext4. It behaves exactly like XFS in my testing; data in the page cache does not cause fiemap to return anything other than "unwritten" for preallocated extents. -Eric _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
