During punch hole, before removing extents we make sure that the blocks
are commited to disk by calling filemap_write_and_wait_range. So, the
extents cannot be present on extent status tree.

Hi Ashish,

I guess that this patch is against mainline kernel, right?  The commit
log is right before we use extent status tree to track all extent
information.  In dev branch of ext4 tree, we track all extent status in
status tree.  So we need to remove extent from status tree in punch
hole.

Thanks,
                                                - Zheng

I was of the opinion that filemap_write_and_wait_range will remove the
extent from status tree if its still there.
ok, I will check the dev branch.

Ah, please bear with me.  In mainline kernel 3.9-rcX, we have used
status tree to track all extent status.  You could also check 3.9-rcX
kernel.  Please let me know if I miss something.

Thanks,
                                                - Zheng

Hi Zheng,

Ok, I understood your point.
Currently, after step 2 of extent status tree, it houses _all_ the
extents and not just delayed extents.
This patch is not required now.

Ashish
