> Subject: [f2fs-dev] [PATCH 1/2] f2fs: support FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE
> 
> Now, FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE flag in ->fallocate is supported in ext4/xfs.
> 
> In commit, the semantics of this flag is descripted as following:
> "1) It collapses the range lying between offset and length by removing any 
> data
>    blocks which are present in this range and than updates all the logical
>    offsets of extents beyond "offset + len" to nullify the hole created by
>    removing blocks. In short, it does not leave a hole.
> 2) It should be used exclusively. No other fallocate flag in combination.
> 3) Offset and length supplied to fallocate should be fs block size aligned
>    in case of xfs and ext4.
> 4) Collaspe range does not work beyond i_size."
> 
> This patch implements fallocate's FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE for f2fs.
