From b953f075007a7860adce9fa410b2e116a3d5e29c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Denis V. Lunev" Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2015 11:42:14 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] block: use fallocate(FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE) in handle_aiocb_write_zeroes This efficiently writes zeroes on Linux if the kernel is capable enough. FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE correctly handles all cases, including and not including file expansion. CC: Kevin Wolf CC: Stefan Hajnoczi CC: Peter Lieven CC: Fam Zheng Signed-off-by: Denis V.
