Nearest, or next? Solaris defines it as "next", for a good reason -
otherwise
you can get stuck in a case where the "nearest" hole is back towards the
start of the file - and "seek data" will bounce back to the next byte at
the other end of the hole.
Yeah sorry the log says "nearest" but the code says "next", if you look
at it thats how it works. Thanks,
The comments in fs.h say "closest". You may want to change them to
"next" as well.
Thanks,
