This creates a number of flags so that filesystems can control
blockdev_direct_IO. It is based on code from Russell Cettelan.
The new flags are:
DIO_CREATE -- always pass create=1 to get_block on writes. This allows
DIO to fill holes in the file.
DIO_PLACEHOLDERS -- use placeholder
This creates a number of flags so that filesystems can control
blockdev_direct_IO. It is based on code from Russell Cettelan.
The new flags are:
DIO_CREATE -- always pass create=1 to get_block on writes. This allows
DIO to fill holes in the file.
DIO_PLACEHOLDERS -- use placeholder
