647Allocates or freed disk space according to the C<$mode> argument. See the
648linux C<fallocate> docuemntation for details.
649
650C<$mode> can currently be C<0> or C<IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE>
651to allocate space, or C<IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE |
652IO::AIO::FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE>, to deallocate a file range.
653
654The file system block size used by C<fallocate> is presumably the
655C<f_bsize> returned by C<statvfs>.

657If C<fallocate> isn't available or cannot be emulated (currently no
658emulation will be attempted), passes C<-1> and sets C<$!> to C<ENOSYS>.
