From dd46c787788d5bf5b974729d43e4c405814a4c7d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Namjae Jeon Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2015 15:07:05 +1100 Subject: fs: Add support FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE for fallocate FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE command is the opposite command of FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE that is needed for someone who wants to add some data in the middle of file. FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE will create space for writing new data within a file after shifting extents to right as given length. This command also has same limitations as FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE in that operations need to be filesystem block boundary aligned and cannot cross the current EOF.
