[PATCH 3/3] Ext4: handle SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA generically V4

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Since Ext4 has its own lseek we need to make sure it handles
SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA.  For now just do the same thing that is done in the generic
case, somebody else can come along and make it do fancy things later.  Thanks,
