[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 09/11] ocfs2_dlmfs: Don't honor truncate. The size of a dlmfs file is LVB_LEN

Joel Becker joel.becker at oracle.com
Wed Feb 10 01:27:52 PST 2010


We want folks using dlmfs to be able to use the LVB in places other than
just write(2)/read(2).  By ignoring truncate requests, we allow 'echo
"contents" > /dlm/space/lockname' to work.
