[PATCH] 9p: fix enodata when reading growing file

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

 



Reading from a file that was just extended by a write, but the write had
not yet reached the server would return ENODATA as illustrated by this
command:
$ xfs_io -c 'open -ft test' -c 'w 4096 1000' -c 'r 0 1000'
wrote 1000/1000 bytes at offset 4096
1000.000000 bytes, 1 ops; 0.0001 sec (5.610 MiB/sec and 5882.3529 ops/sec)
pread: No data available

Fix this case by having netfs assume zeroes when reads from server come
short like AFS and CEPH do
