Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Start to fix fallocate support
Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2019 14:37:47 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190313043749.832-1-lsahlber@redhat.com> (raw)

Steve, Pavel

These initial two patches fixes fallocate -z (zero range) support against
windows2016 shares. This is a different case than what causes generic/469
to fail against samba shares but the approach for all these failures should
be similar.

It is a WIP in that it only addresses one single instance of this general
limited fallocate support in cifs.ko.
Next steps if you agree this is the way to go, would be to try to think
about how we can expand this to some/all of the othter cases as well
but perhaps without making too much code duplication.


Steve, can you run this against the buildbot and see that there are no new
failures from it?
