From 0e05842bc117ea70ceb979cca798fd026879951b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Sandeen Date: Sun, 16 May 2010 10:00:00 -0400 Subject: quota: add the option to not fail with EDQUOT in block To simplify metadata tracking for delalloc writes, ext4 will simply claim metadata blocks at allocation time, without first speculatively reserving the worst case and then freeing what was not used. To do this, we need a mechanism to track allocations in the quota subsystem, but potentially allow that allocation to actually go over quota. This patch adds a DQUOT_SPACE_NOFAIL flag and function variants for this purpose.
