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

 



The patch titled
     FAT: DIO-write fallback to normal buffered
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     fat-dio-write-fallback-to-normal-buffered.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: FAT: DIO-write fallback to normal buffered
From: OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If the DIO write on FAT is expanding the size, it will be fail by -EINVAL,
because FAT can't handle it now.

This patch fallback it to the normal buffered-write and would return
success.
