Actually I'd prefer if you could throw this into your do_truncate patch so that filesystems don't get the clear suid request if the file size doesn't change. That way I can just change XFS to do everything requested but the actual size update for that case. In fact just clearing out ATTR_SIZE in that case in do_truncate would be nice. Which brings up the question: are we guaranteed to have stable and uptodate i_size in do_truncate? I think normally we'd need a ->getattr first to stabilize it. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
