Subject: [PATCH v3 12/13] ext4/063: Atomic write test for extent split across leaf nodes
Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2025 19:42:54 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b6f7b73de6bb6ebfc78e533f89f0899d884e5490.1752329098.git.ojaswin@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1752329098.git.ojaswin@linux.ibm.com>
In ext4, even if an allocated range is physically and logically
contiguous, it can still be split into 2 extents. This is because ext4
does not merge extents across leaf nodes. This is an issue for atomic
writes since even for a continuous extent the map block could (in rare
cases) return a shorter map, hence tearning the write. This test creates
such a file and ensures that the atomic write handles this case
correctly
