From: Vishal Verma Subject: [PATCH v4 6/7] dax: for truncate/hole-punch, do zeroing through the driver if possible Date: Thu, 28 Apr 2016 15:16:57 -0600 Message-ID: <1461878218-3844-7-git-send-email-vishal.l.verma@intel.com> References: <1461878218-3844-1-git-send-email-vishal.l.verma@intel.com> Cc: Vishal Verma , linux-fsdevel@vger.kernel.org, linux-block@vger.kernel.org, xfs@oss.sgi.com, linux-ext4@vger.kernel.org, linux-mm@kvack.org, Matthew Wilcox , Ross Zwisler , Dan Williams , Dave Chinner , Jan Kara , Jens Axboe , Al Viro , Andrew Morton , linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Christoph Hellwig , Jeff Moyer To: linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org Return-path: In-Reply-To: <1461878218-3844-1-git-send-email-vishal.l.verma@intel.com> Sender: owner-linux-mm@kvack.org List-Id: linux-ext4.vger.kernel.org In the truncate or hole-punch path in dax, we clear out sub-page ranges. If these sub-page ranges are sector aligned and sized, we can do the zeroing through the driver instead so that error-clearing is handled automatically. For sub-sector ranges, we still have to rely on clear_pmem and have the possibility of tripping over errors.
