But I was referring to the additional check in zonefs_swap_activate() before iomap_swapfile_activate() is called. We must prevent that function from being called for a full sequential write only zone file since such file will pass all checks (no hole, all extents written etc) but cannot be used for swap since it is not writtable when full (no overwrites allowed in sequential zones). > > Also, I noticed, iomap_swapfile_add_extent() filters out extents > that are smaller than PAGE_SIZE, and aligns larger extents to > PAGE_SIZE.
