https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D233245 Konstantin Belousov <kib@FreeBSD.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |kib@FreeBSD.org --- Comment #3 from Konstantin Belousov <kib@FreeBSD.org> --- Of course I sympathize the idea of improving the user experience, but IMO t= he cost of the code complexity is more important there. SU, from my prospective, were never supposed to provide the user data consistency guarantees. The goal was/is only the metadata sanity, even not = the guarantee that on-disk metadata actually matches some state during the syst= em operation. We never track user data block writes ordering, so whatever sta= te user data is left after the crash, is the user issue. >From this PoV, file size increase by hole vs. increase by the actual conten= t is not under the SU scope. Again, to make my opinion clear: I would not objec= t, but SU are already insanely complex and we must not increase the complexity just because we can. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
