[PATCH] fs: generic_file_llseek_size() should recognize invalid whence values

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

 



generic_file_llseek_size() handles whence values in a switch statement,
but it lacks cases for both SEEK_SET and invalid values. This causes it
to treat all invalid whence values as SEEK_SET, which is wrong.

We fix that by adding a case for SEEK_SET and a default case.
