Re: [PATCH v5] ocfs2: Let ocfs2_setattr use new truncate sequence.

From: Tao Ma
Date: Thu Jun 17 2010 - 23:22:38 EST


Hi Al and Christoph,
can this patch be added to the vfs-2.6.git?
Or I should ask Joel to include it in ocfs2.git?

btw, I think both Nick and Joel have acked this patch?

Regards,
Tao

Let ocfs2 use the new truncate sequence. The changes include:
1. Move inode_change_ok into cluster lock and remove inode_newsize_ok.
2. Use truncate_setsize directly since we don't implement our
own ->truncate and what we need is "update i_size and
truncate_pagecache" which truncate_setsize now does.
3. Change some i_size_read to inode->i_size in ocfs2_setattr
since we have i_muext held.
4. For direct write, ocfs2 actually don't allow write to pass
i_size(see ocfs2_prepare_inode_for_write), so we don't have
a chance to increase i_size. So remove the bogus check.
