When delayed allocation is disabled (either through mount option or because we are running low on free space), ext4_write_begin() allocates blocks with EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_IO_CREATE_EXT flag. With this flag extent merging is disabled and since ext4_write_begin() is called for each page separately, we end up with a *lot* of 1 block extents in the extent tree and following writeback is writing 1 block at a time which results in very poor write throughput (4 MB/s instead of 200 MB/s). These days when ext4_get_block_unwritten() is used only by ext4_write_begin(), ext4_page_mkwrite() and inline data conversion, we can safely allow extent merging to happen from these paths since following writeback will happen on different boundaries anyway. So use EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CREATE_UNRIT_EXT instead which restores the performance.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
