In 2005 commit master-melb:xfs-cmds:23840a from Nathan added calls to
XFS_QSYNC/Q_XQUOTASYNC to xfs_quota, with the following rather sparse
description:
"Issue a quote sync before reporting quota, resolving issue with delayed
allocation."
I can't really see a reason for this - we do quota accounting by the time
we reserve space for the delayed allocation, and while converting the
reservations might change the quota accounting minimally due to the amount
of btree blocks used for the bmap btree on large files in generally this
makes little sense, and on today's large system has a large performance
impact. Also only xfs_quota ever did these calls, the generic quota tool
never did any kind of sync, and of course removing it does not cause
any regressions in xfstests.
Nathan, I've cced you in case you still remember anything about this,
although it's fairly unlikely after 6.5 years. Also if anyone at SGI
can find anything about the above commits in BugWorks additional feedback
would be welcome.
