From 944fcfc18445b22d7ad1953a6effcfbdc4ffec74 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jaegeuk Kim Date: Thu, 26 Dec 2013 20:15:09 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] f2fs: check the blocksize before calling generic_direct_IO path The f2fs supports 4KB block size. If user requests dwrite with under 4KB data, it allocates a new 4KB data block. However, f2fs doesn't add zero data into the untouched data area inside the newly allocated data block. This incurs an error during the xfstest #263 test as follow. 263 12s ...

Finally, the output file contains a garbage data for that region. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim --- Reading git-format-patch failed
