If we can get the current set of fixes integrated, I'll submit another
fix proposal to take the fd_offset into account in a second time. (Not
enlarging the current set)
But here is what I'm thinking about. That we can discuss later if you want:
@@ -3730,11 +3724,12 @@ int ram_block_discard_range(RAMBlock *rb,
uint64_t start, size_t length)
}
ret = fallocate(rb->fd, FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE |
FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE,
- start, length);
+ start + rb->fd_offset, length);
if (ret) {
ret = -errno;
error_report("%s: Failed to fallocate %s:%" PRIx64 "
+%zx (%d)",
- __func__, rb->idstr, start, length, ret);
+ __func__, rb->idstr, start + rb->fd_offset,
+ length, ret);
goto err;
}
Or I can integrate that as an addition patch if you prefer.
Very good point! We missed to take fd_offset into account here.
Can you send that out as a separate fix?
Fixed: 4b870dc4d0c0 ("hostmem-file: add offset option")
