This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ext4: simplify truncation code in ext4_setattr() to the 3.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ext4-simplify-truncation-code-in-ext4_setattr.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 5208386c501276df18fee464e21d3c58d2d79517 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 17 Aug 2013 10:07:17 -0400 Subject: ext4: simplify truncation code in ext4_setattr() From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> commit 5208386c501276df18fee464e21d3c58d2d79517 upstream. Merge conditions in ext4_setattr() handling inode size changes, also move ext4_begin_ordered_truncate() call somewhat earlier because it simplifies error recovery in case of failure. Also add error handling in case i_disksize update fails.
