Hole Punching V3

Hole Punching V3

[Josef Bacik]

This is version 3 of the hole punching series I've been posting.  Not much has
changed, the history is below

V2->V3
-FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE must also have FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE in order to work
-formatting fixes

V1->V2
-Hole punching doesn't change file size
-Fixed the mode checks in ext4/btrfs/gfs2 so they do what they are supposed to

I've updated my local copies of the xfsprogs patches I have to test this to use
KEEP_SIZE and PUNCH_HOLE together, I'll post them after it looks like these
patches are good to go, including the manpage update.  The xfstest I wrote ran
fine both on xfs and btrfs (failing on btrfs obviously).  Thanks,

Josef

[PATCH 1/6] fs: add hole punching to fallocate

[Josef Bacik]

Hole punching has already been implemented by XFS and OCFS2, and has the
potential to be implemented on both BTRFS and EXT4 so we need a generic way to
get to this feature.  The simplest way in my mind is to add FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE
to fallocate() since it already looks like the normal fallocate() operation.
I've tested this patch with XFS and BTRFS to make sure XFS did what it's
supposed to do and that BTRFS failed like it was supposed to.  Thank you,

[PATCH 2/6] XFS: handle hole punching via fallocate properly

[Josef Bacik]

This patch simply allows XFS to handle the hole punching flag in fallocate
properly.  I've tested this with a little program that does a bunch of random
hole punching with FL_KEEP_SIZE and without it to make sure it does the right
thing.  Thanks,

[PATCH 3/6] Ocfs2: handle hole punching via fallocate properly

[Josef Bacik]

This patch just makes ocfs2 use its UNRESERVP ioctl when we get the hole punch
flag in fallocate.  I didn't test it, but it seems simple enough.  Thanks,

Ext4 doesn't have the ability to punch holes yet, so make sure we return
EOPNOTSUPP if we try to use hole punching through fallocate.  This support can
be added later.  Thanks,

I'd like to try and get this into the next merge window, it seems everybody is
happy with it so far, any other comments?  Provided everybody is ok with it, how
would you like me to send it to you Linus?  Would you prefer a pull request or
will you just pull the patches off the mailinglist?  Thanks,

Josef
