[PATCH 1/1] Enable fully functional truncate for hugetlbfs

From: Dave McCracken
Date: Mon Feb 12 2007 - 09:30:53 EST


This patch enables the full functionality of truncate for hugetlbfs
files. Truncate was originally limited to reducing the file size
because page faults were not supported for hugetlbfs. Now that page
faults have been implemented it is now possible to fully support
truncate.
