Subject: [PATCH RFC 12/17] ext4: factor out ext4_might_init_block_bitmap() helper
Date: Fri, 8 May 2026 20:15:34 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260508121539.4174601-13-libaokun@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260508121539.4174601-1-libaokun@linux.alibaba.com>
Extract the BLOCK_UNINIT initialization logic from ext4_mark_inode_used()
and __ext4_new_inode() into a shared ext4_might_init_block_bitmap() helper.
Both call sites perform the same sequence: check EXT4_BG_BLOCK_UNINIT,
read the block bitmap, dirty it, then clear the flag and establish the
correct block bitmap checksum under the group lock. The only difference
is whether a journal handle is available (NULL during fast commit replay
in ext4_mark_inode_used()).
No functional change.
