[PATCH] ext4: only call ext4_truncate when size <= isize

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

 



At LSF we decided that if we truncate up from isize we shouldn't trim fallocated
blocks that were fallocated with KEEP_SIZE and are past the new i_size.  This
patch fixes ext4 to do this.  Thanks,
