Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] Enable cached zone report
Date: Fri, 19 Dec 2025 18:38:07 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251219093810.540437-1-dlemoal@kernel.org> (raw)
Enable cached zone report to speed up mkfs and repair on a zoned block
device (e.g. an SMR disk). Cached zone report support was introduced in
the kernel with version 6.19-rc1. This was co-developped with
Christoph.
Darrick,
It may be cleaner to have a common report zones helper instead of
repating the same ioctl pattern in mkfs/xfs_mkfs.c and repair/zoned.c.
However, I am not sure where to place such helper. In libxfs/ or in
libfrog/ ? Please advise.
Thanks !
Changes from v1:
- Fix erroneous handling of ioctl(BLKREPORTZONEV2) error to correctly
fallback to the regular ioctl(BLKREPORTZONE) if the kernel does not
support BLKREPORTZONEV2.
Damien Le Moal (3):
libxfs: define BLKREPORTZONEV2 if the kernel does not provide it
mkfs: use cached report zone
repair: use cached report zone
libxfs/topology.h | 8 ++++++++
mkfs/xfs_mkfs.c | 7 ++++++-
repair/zoned.c | 7 ++++++-
