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

From: Joel Becker
Date: Wed Feb 10 2010 - 04:31:00 EST


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.
