I think ENOSPC is a really bad idea in this case, but I also think we should make sure Linux filesystems behave unfiformly. Jeff, can you write a summary of the errors returned by all common filesystems and post it to -fsdevel for comment? We should have a common error for this, and I'd be a happier man if it weren't ENOSPC, but that's secondary. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
