From: Anna Schumaker <Anna.Schumaker@xxxxxxxxxx> These patches add server support for the ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE operations part of NFS v4.2. I submitted my do_fallocate() -> vfs_fallocate() change as a separate patch, so it has been removed from this submission. However, this code still depends on this patch being applied first. Changes in v2: - ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE can call a common nfsd4_fallocate() to check the stateids, look up the file, and eventually call nfsd4_vfs_fallocate(). - I return NFS4ERR_INVAL in the case that vfs_fallocate() returns -ENODEV. Please let me know if there is a better error to return instead! These patches and the corresponding client changes are available in the [fallocate] branch of: git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/anna/linux-nfs.git Questions? Comments? Thoughts?
