[PATCH 5/5] ext3-get-blocks: Adjust reservation window size formblocks

From: Mingming Cao
Date: Tue Jan 10 2006 - 18:26:15 EST



Last part of the multiple blocks allocation patch which optimize the block reservation
and the multiple block allocation: with the knowledge of the total number of blocks
ahead, set or adjust the reservation window size properly (based on the number of blocks
needed) before block allocation happens: if there isn't any reservation yet, make sure
the reservation window equals to or greater than the number of blocks needed, before create
an reservation window; if a reservation window is already exists, try to extends the window
size to match the number of blocks to allocate. This could increase the possibility of
completing multiple blocks allocation in a single request, as blocks are only allocated in
the range of the inode's reservation window.
