Please forget my other questions , seems the only work to make punch hole work for zero range is to make a function like the one I am pasting below for zero range and change the calls to punch range to zero range as the other parts of the function can be the same from my reading. Regards Nick static int find_first_non_hole(struct inode *inode, u64 *start, u64 *len) { struct extent_map *em; int ret = 0;
em = btrfs_get_extent(inode, NULL, 0, *start, *len, 0); if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(em)) { if (!em) ret = -ENOMEM; else ret = PTR_ERR(em); return ret; } /* Hole or vacuum extent(only exists in no-hole mode) */ if (em->block_start == EXTENT_MAP_HOLE) { ret = 1; *len = em->start + em->len > *start + *len ? 0 : *start + *len - em->start - em->len; *start = em->start + em->len; } free_extent_map(em); return ret; } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
