This fires but I don't understand why 🤔
const int mode = FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE | FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE;
Means that we will punch a hole on all the blocks so at least we should see a reduction yet it does not change at all 🤔
Based on my understanding, PUCH_HOLE is not hint meaning that we should see a reduction in block size

I do not know but I would first use fallocate + stat shell commands and play with them. no need to write code to explore their behavior
