How are you handling the allocation in this situation, are you assuming that a chunk is "out of bounds" because part of a file already lives on it or simply keeping a single inode per chunk which has multiple sparse pieces of the file on it ?
ie if I write 0-8MB to chunk A and then 8-16 to chunk B can I write 16-24MB to chunk A producing a single inode of 0-8 16-24, or does it have to find another chunk to use ? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
