ext4: make mb_optimize_scan performance mount option work with extents
Currently mb_optimize_scan scan feature which improves filesystem performance heavily (when FS is fragmented), seems to be not working with files with extents (ext4 by default has files with extents). This patch fixes that and makes mb_optimize_scan feature work for files with extents. Below are some performance numbers obtained when allocating a 10M and 100M file with and w/o this patch on a filesytem with no 1M contiguous block. <perf numbers> =============== Workload: dd if=/dev/urandom of=test conv=fsync bs=1M count=10/100 Time taken ===================================================== no.
