Subject: [PATCH 11/14] btrfs-progs: check return of posix_fadvise
Date: Mon,  4 Mar 2013 16:40:01 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1362436804-16766-12-git-send-email-sandeen@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1362436804-16766-1-git-send-email-sandeen@redhat.com>

It seems highly unlikely that posix_fadvise could fail,
and even if it does, it was only advisory.  Still, if
it does, we could issue a notice to the user.
