From 169ddc3ec83b5f732e51d975befb191d50795844 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tao Ma Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2011 00:00:07 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: speed up group trim with the right free block count When we trim some free blocks in a group of ext4, we need to calculate the free blocks properly and check whether there are enough freed blocks left for us to trim. Current solution will only calculate free spaces if they are large for a trim which isn't appropriate. Let us see a small example: a group has 1.5M free which are 300k, 300k, 300k, 300k, 300k. And minblocks is 1M. With current solution, we have to iterate the whole group since these 300k will never be subtracted from 1.5M. But actually we should exit after we find the first 2 free spaces since the left 3 chunks only sum up to 900K if we subtract the first 600K although they can't be trimed.
