Hm well I suppose could/should expand it. This starts out via libxfs_device_zero as a uint "len" in sectors so it could/should be a bit bigger. >> +{ >> + int ret; >> + >> + ret = fallocate(fd, FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE, start, len); >> + if (!ret) >> + return 0; >> + return -errno; >> +} >> +#else >> +#define platform_zero_range(fd, s, l) (-EOPNOTSUP) > > EOPNOTSUPP (two P's) Weird not sure how I picked that, though they are equivalent today. *sigh* V4 I guess.

I had a request from someone who cared about mkfs speed(!) over a slower network block device to look into using faster zeroing methods, particularly for the log, during mkfs. Using FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE is faster in this case than writing a bunch of zeros across a wire. Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> --- V2: Clean up all the nasty stuff I'd flung out there as a wild first cut, thanks Dave. V3: make len_bytes a size_t; leave "end_offset" where it is for the loop use. It's a bit odd but ... just don't mess with it for now, one patch one change.
