From: Anna Schumaker <Anna.Schumaker@xxxxxxxxxx> These patches add client support for the ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE operations part of NFS v4.2, which are triggered by a vfs_fallocate() call. Changes in v4: - Check if we are modifying a regular file, and return nfserr_inval if not. These patches and the corresponding server changes are available in the [fallocate] branch of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/anna/linux-nfs.git Questions? Comments? Thougts?
