[PATCH] file: Normalize errno value for ENODEV
Fix issues Eric found in the original patch: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2018-July/msg00072.html - When handling ENODEV, the caller is expecting ENOTSUPP to trigger fallback. - ENODEV should be ignored in file_trim.

[PATCH 0/3] file: Zero for block devices and older file systems
This is the second version to support efficient zero for block devices on older kernels (e.g. RHEL 7.5), and file systems that do not support yet FALLOC_FS_ZERO_RANGE (e.g. NFS 4.2). Changes since v1: - Split to smaller patches - Skip linux only includes on other systems - Skip code using BLKZEROOUT if the macro is not defined - Try BLKZEROOUT only if the offset and count are aligned to device

[PATCH v2 0/4] file: Zero for block devices and older file systems
This is the third version to support efficient zero for block devices on older kernels (e.g. RHEL 7.5), and file systems that do not support yet FALLOC_FS_ZERO_RANGE (e.g. NFS 4.2). Changes since v2: - Revert file_can_trim change, since it is too late to change the value after negotiation. Changing the capability dinamically may be useful internally, but it should be done via other means. -

This version addresses some of the comments on v2.

[PATCH nbdkit PRELIMINARY] file: Move file operators to a new fileops mini-library
There's a lot of code in nbdkit-file-plugin which it would be nice to reuse elsewhere. One possible approach (as outlined here) is simply to move the file callbacks (like file.pread, file.pwrite, file.zero etc) to a new mini-library. They can then be consumed by other plugins fairly easily by doing: static void * foo_open (int readonly) { struct fileops *fops; int fd, flags; /*

[nbdkit PATCH] file: Add trim support
We already have support in the file driver for punching holes during .zero with the may_trim flag (via FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE), so we should use the same mechanism to support .trim. Note that the NBD spec says that trim is advisory (we can return success even if we did nothing); but at the same time, it's nicer to avoid advertising the feature if we know for sure we can't do it, so we also

[PATCH] file: Zero support for block devices and NFS 4.2
If we may not trim, we tried ZERO_RANGE, but this is not well supported yet, for example it is not available on NFS 4.2. ZERO_RANGE and PUNCH_HOLE are supported now on block devices, but not on RHRL 7, so we fallback to slow manual zeroing there. Change the logic to support block devices on RHEL 7, and file systems that do not support ZERO_RANGE. The new logic: - If we may trim, try PUNCH_HOLE -

[nbdkit PATCH v2 0/6] bind .zero to Python
Fix some things I noticed while reviewing v1, and follow Rich's idea to add a new nbdkit_set_error() utility function with a binding for Python users to request a particular error (rather than being forced to live with whatever stale value is in errno after all the intermediate binding glue code). I could not easily find out how to register a C function callable from perl bindings, and have

[nbdkit PATCH 0/5] Add WRITE_ZEROES support
The upstream protocol recently promoted NBD_CMD_WRITE_ZEROES from experimental to a documented extension. Exposing support for this allows plugin writers to create sparse files when driven by a client that knows how to use the extension; meanwhile, even if a plugin does not support this extension, the server benefits from less network traffic from the client.

[PATCH] ocfs2: check new file size on fallocate call
When changing a file size with fallocate() the new size isn't being checked. In particular, the FSIZE ulimit isn't being checked, which makes fstest generic/228 fail. Simply adding a call to inode_newsize_ok() fixes this issue.

[PATCH 1/3] VFS/ioctl: Add punching-hole support to ioctl().
We're currently support two paths from VFS to preallocate unwritten extents(from FS_IOC_RESVSP, or fallocate()), likewise, behavior of punching-hole should be treated as the same, this patch tries to teach file_ioctl() to handle FS_IOC_UNRESVSP, underlying filesystem like ocfs2 is wise enough to do the rest of work;-) Signed-off-by: Tristan Ye <tristan.ye at oracle.com> --- fs/ioctl.c
