Here is example run, tested on Fedora 24 machine, creating raw file on NFS version 3 server. $ time ./qemu-img-master create -f raw -o preallocation=falloc mnt/test 1g Formatting 'mnt/test', fmt=raw size=1073741824 preallocation=falloc real 0m21.185s user 0m0.022s sys 0m0.574s $ time ./qemu-img-fix create -f raw -o preallocation=falloc mnt/test 1g Formatting 'mnt/test', fmt=raw size=1073741824 preallocation=falloc real 0m11.601s user 0m0.016s sys 0m0.525s $ time dd if=/dev/zero of=mnt/test bs=1M count=1024 oflag=direct 1024+0 records in 1024+0 records out 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB, 1.0 GiB) copied, 15.6627 s, 68.6 MB/s real 0m16.104s user 0m0.009s sys 0m0.220s Running with strace we can see that without this change we do one pread() and one pwrite() for each block. With this change, we do only one pwrite() per block. $ strace ./qemu-img-master create -f raw -o preallocation=falloc mnt/test 8192 ... pread64(9, "\0", 1, 4095) = 1 pwrite64(9, "\0", 1, 4095) = 1 pread64(9, "\0", 1, 8191) = 1 pwrite64(9, "\0", 1, 8191) = 1 $ strace ./qemu-img-fix create -f raw -o preallocation=falloc mnt/test 8192 ... pwrite64(9, "\0", 1, 4095) = 1 pwrite64(9, "\0", 1, 8191) = 1 This happens because posix_fallocate is checking if each block is allocated before writing a byte to the block, and when truncating the file before preallocation, all blocks are unallocated.
