[patch 08/35] ocfs2: no need try to truncate file beyond i_size

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

Subject: ocfs2: no need try to truncate file beyond i_size

Linux fallocate(2) with FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE mode set, its offset can
exceed inode size.  Ocfs2 now does't allow that offset beyond inode size. 
This restriction is not necessary and voilates fallocate(2) semantics.

If fallocate(2) offset is beyond inode size, just return success and do
nothing further.

Otherwise, ocfs2 will crash the kernel.
