From b9fca5cb9ab94112bebd1e5db862962df9dfcec2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lukas Czerner Date: Fri, 3 Apr 2015 00:09:13 -0400 Subject: ext4: allocate entire range in zero range [ Upstream commit 0f2af21aae11972fa924374ddcf52e88347cf5a8 ] Currently there is a bug in zero range code which causes zero range calls to only allocate block aligned portion of the range, while ignoring the rest in some cases. In some cases, namely if the end of the range is past i_size, we do attempt to preallocate the last nonaligned block. However this might cause kernel to BUG() in some carefully designed zero range requests on setups where page size > block size. Fix this problem by first preallocating the entire range, including the nonaligned edges and converting the written extents to unwritten in the next step. This approach will also give us the advantage of having the range to be as linearly contiguous as possible.
