Adar Dembo updated KUDU-1857:
-----------------------------
Status: In Review (was: In Progress)
> Retry LBM hole punching on crash
> --------------------------------

> Key: KUDU-1857

> Given the LBM design, it's possible for block deletion to be committed via a
> metadata write, but for the subsequent hole punch to fail, or for the server
> to crash in between. As such, we should provide a mechanism to
> "re-hole-punch" deleted blocks. This could be dumb and hole punch every dead
> block in the container, or it could be smart and use the [FIEMAP
> ioctl|https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/filesystems/fiemap.txt] to
> figure out which dead blocks have live extents and surgically punch them.
> Separately, this should be runnable at startup, and perhaps as part of a
> general filesystem checker in the CLI tool.
