This series massages the preallocation and hole punching code into something sane. The big catchall xfs_change_file_space function is gone, fallocate and the ioctl entry point now directly call the low-level functions, and fallocate can avoid packing its arguments into the xfs_flock form and duplicating error checking already done in the VFS. In addition we also use a common locking patter now, that is preallocations using the ioctl path now also take iolock, just like fallocate and all other ioctl cases already did beforehand. |
