[PATCH 08/18] fs/ntfs3: Fix attr_insert_range at end of file

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

 



If the offset is equal to or greater than the end of
file, an error is returned. For such operations (i.e., inserting
a hole at the end of file), ftruncate(2) should be used.
