I worried #define AOP_FLAG_UNINTERRUPTIBLE 0x0001 /* will not do a short write */ which forbids (!?) aborting the loop. But it seems that this flag is no longer checked (i.e. set but not used). So, everybody should be ready for short write, although I don't know whether exofs / hfs / hfsplus are doing appropriate error handling. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
