ext4: Add delayed allocation support in data=writeback mode
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Updated with fixes from Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com> to unlock and
release the page from page cache if the delalloc write_begin failed, and
properly handle preallocated blocks.  Also added a fix to clear
buffer_delay in block_write_full_page() after allocating a delayed
buffer.

Updated with fixes from Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
to update i_disksize properly and to add bmap support for delayed
allocation.

Updated with a fix from Valerie Clement <valerie.clement@bull.net> to
avoid filesystem corruption when the filesystem is mounted with the
delalloc option and blocksize < pagesize.
