NAME
fallocate - preallocate or deallocate space to a file
SYNOPSIS
fallocate [-c|-p|-z] [-o offset] -l length [-n] filename
fallocate -d [-o offset] [-l length] filename
DESCRIPTION
fallocate is used to manipulate the allocated disk space for a file,
either to deallocate or preallocate it. For filesystems which support
the fallocate system call, preallocation is done quickly by allocating
blocks and marking them as uninitialized, requiring no IO to the data
blocks. This is much faster than creating a file by filling it with
zeroes.

Busybox is very often used in initramfs at the end of which usually
there is a switch_root to the actual rootfs. There are many cases where
the console kernel argument is either just a placeholder (for example
RaspberryPi uses serial0 and serial1) or configured as null to avoid any
console messages - usually you would see such of a setup in production
environments.
Currently busybox bails out if can't open the console argument. If this
happenes in initramfs and if the console=null for example, you get in a
blind kernel panic. Avoid this by only warning instead of dying.

This reverts commit 86a03bee1d.
Since now our "mount -oloop" creates AUTOCLEARed loopdevs, we no longer
need our umount to destroy loopdevs to match the usual util-linux behaviour.
Now this revert fixes another, opposite bug: "explicit" mount /dev/loopN
and then umount must not drop loopdevs!
User complaint is as follows:
It seems LOOP_CLR_FD called on a loop-*partition* removes the mapping of
the whole *device* - which results in the following:
root@LEDE:/# loop=$(losetup -f)
root@LEDE:/# echo ${loop}
/dev/loop2
root@LEDE:/# losetup ${loop} /IMAGE
root@LEDE:/# ls -l ${loop}*

brw------- 1 root root 259, 15 Mar 6 21:59 /dev/loop2p8
root@LEDE:/# mount ${loop}p8 /MOUNT # mount loop partition
root@LEDE:/# losetup -a | grep $loop # loop dev mapping still there
/dev/loop2: 0 /mnt/IMAGE
root@LEDE:/# strace umount /MOUNT 2> /log # unmount loop partition
root@LEDE:/# losetup -a | grep ${loop} # loop device mapping is gone
root@LEDE:/# grep -i loop /log
open("/dev/loop2p7", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
ioctl(3, LOOP_CLR_FD) = 0
root@LEDE:/#
The strace was done to figure out, if maybe umount wrongly ioctl()'s the
parent device instead of the partition - it doesn't.
I already wasn't a fan of umount implicitly removing the mapping in the
first place (as I usually setup and release loop devices with `losetup`
and scripts needed to call umount differently in order to work and
outside busybox).
However taking above (kernel-)behaviour into account - umount calling
ioctl(LOOP_CLR_FD) unconditionally potentially causes some nasty side
effects

The "autolooped" mount (mount [-oloop] IMAGE /DIR/DIR)
always creates AUTOCLEARed loopdevs, so that umounting
drops them (and this does not require any code in the
umount userspace).
This happens since circa linux-2.6.25:
commit 96c5865559cee0f9cbc5173f3c949f6ce3525581
Date: Wed Feb 6 01:36:27 2008 -0800
Subject: Allow auto-destruction of loop devices
IOW: in this case, umount does not have to use -d
to drop the loopdev.
The explicit loop mount (mount /dev/loopN /DIR/DIR)
does not do this. In this case, umount without -d
should not drop loopdev.
Unfortunately, bbox umount currently always implies -d,
this probably needs fixing.

Currently some new devices that have a bus but no class will
be missed by mdev coldplug device creation after boot. This
happens because mdev recursively searches /sys/class which will
by definition only find class devices.
Some important devices such as iio and gpiochip does not have
a class. But users will need them.
This switches from using /sys/class as the place to look for
devices to create to using /sys/dev where all char and block
devices are listed.
The subsystem lookup code that provide the G.subsystem
environment variable is changed from using the directory
name of the class device to instead dereference the
"subsystem" symlink for the device, and look at the last
element of the path of the symlink for the subsystem, which
will work with class devices and bus devices alike. (The new
bus-only devices only symlink to the /sys/bus/* hierarchy.)
We delete the legacy kernel v2.6.2x /sys/block device path
code as part of this change. It's too old to be kept alive.
Tested on kernel v4.6-rc2 with a bunch of devices, including
some IIO and gpiochip devices.
With a print inserted before make_device() the log looks
like so:
Create device from "/sys/dev/char/1:1", subsystem "mem"
Create device from "/sys/dev/char/1:2", subsystem "mem"
Create device from "/sys/dev/char/1:3", subsystem "mem"
Create device from "/sys/dev/char/1:5", subsystem "mem"
(...)
Create device from "/sys/dev/block/179:56", subsystem "block"
Create device from "/sys/dev/block/179:64", subsystem "block"

1) real swapon/swapoff handles also devices on the commandline with -a;
2) xstat(device) in swap_enable_disable aborts on error when cycling through
fstab so some devices are not handled;
3) duplicated code for ENABLE_FEATURE_SWAPON_DISCARD and
ENABLE_FEATURE_SWAPON_PRI was moved to functions.
4) silence some error messages with -a;
5) minor cleanups and code refactoring reduced the size as per bloat-check:
6) I also added support for /proc/swaps handling to swapoff:
"When the -a flag is given, swapping is disabled on all known swap devices
and files (as found in /proc/swaps or /etc/fstab)."
So now swapoff first cycles through /proc/swaps and then through fstab
to swapoff all devices.
