Re: ext4 extends implementation question



That's not how extents work. What you are describing is a large block
granularity, not extents-based allocation. There is no reason why the
next allocation can't happen like this:

[X][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]
[X][X][X][X][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]
[X][X][X][X][X][X][X][X][A][A][A][A]
[X][X][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]
[X][X][X][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]
[-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-]
[-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-][-]

That was pretty much my question, ty very much :)

greets!
