Subject[RFC PATCH] hugetlbfs: zero partial pages during fallocate hole punch
Date
hugetlbfs fallocate support was originally added with commit 70c3547e36f5
("hugetlbfs: add hugetlbfs_fallocate()"). Initial support only operated
on whole hugetlb pages. This makes sense for populating files as other
interfaces such as mmap and truncate require hugetlb page size alignment.
Only operating on whole hugetlb pages for the hole punch case was a
simplification and there was no compelling use case to zero partial pages.

In a recent discussion[1] it was assumed that hugetlbfs hole punch would
zero partial hugetlb pages as that is in line with the man page
description saying 'partial filesystem blocks are zeroed'. However,
the hugetlbfs hole punch code actually does this:

hole_start = round_up(offset, hpage_size);
hole_end = round_down(offset + len, hpage_size);

Modify code to zero partial hugetlb pages in hole punch range. It is
possible that application code could note a change in behavior. However,
that would imply the code is passing in an unaligned range and expecting
only whole pages be removed. This is unlikely as the fallocate
documentation states the opposite.

The current hugetlbfs fallocate hole punch behavior is tested with the
libhugetlbfs test fallocate_align[2]. This test will be updated to
validate partial page zeroing.
