Subject: [patch 3/3] ext2: use perform_write aop
Date: Thu, 8 Feb 2007 14:07:46 +0100 (CET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070208105508.26443.7806.sendpatchset@linux.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070208105437.26443.35653.sendpatchset@linux.site>
Convert ext2 to use ->perform_write. This uses the main loop out of
generic_perform_write, but when encountering a short usercopy, it
zeroes out new uninitialised blocks, and passes in a short-length commit
to __block_commit_write, which does the right thing (in terms of not
setting things uptodate).
