-Zeroing is done within the filesystem preferably by converting the range into unwritten extents. This approach means that the specified range will not be physically zeroed out on the device (except for partial blocks at the either end of the range), and I/O is (otherwise) required only to update metadata.

 Zeroing is done within the filesystem. The filesystem may use a hardware-accelerated zeroing command or may submit regular writes. The behavior depends on the filesystem design and the available hardware.
