Hi Ted, I have test patch with Ashish's modification, and that have problem when depth of extent tree is greater than 2. I will make a test case with your patch.

Hi Forrest, Can you share an updated version of your patch (with Ashish's modification if you've tried testing that)? And also can you send us some automated way to create your test case? That might make it easier for us all to test the same thing and all be on the same page. I assume you have some C program which which is doing all of the punching? I started trying to create something via a script like this: touch testfile fallocate -l 1G testfile for i in $(seq 0 8192 1073741824) ; do fallocate -p -o $i -l 4k testfile ; done .. where fallocate is from contrib/fallocate.c in the e2fsprogs sources (not the fallocate from util-linux) with the attached patch to add support for the -p option to do the pnuching.... but then I decided it might be better if we all standardized on the same test case. Ideally, if the test case is small enough, we can put it in the commit message, or at very least we should look into getting it into xfstests, and Eric has suggested. Cheers, - Ted commit 2658b9616fe63d2fd9e2654676877ab014639a92 Author: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Date: Thu Dec 6 11:21:44 2012 -0500 contrib/fallocate: add support for punch functionality Also fix the -o option so it works correctly (instead of core dumping).
