From: Josef Bacik Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2011 17:21:35 +0000 (-0400) Subject: fs: add SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA flags X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=982d816581;p=linux-beck.git fs: add SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA flags This just gets us ready to support the SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA flags. Turns out using fiemap in things like cp cause more problems than it solves, so lets try and give userspace an interface that doesn't suck. We need to match solaris here, and the definitions are *o* If /whence/ is SEEK_HOLE, the offset of the start of the next hole greater than or equal to the supplied offset is returned. The definition of a hole is provided near the end of the DESCRIPTION. *o* If /whence/ is SEEK_DATA, the file pointer is set to the start of the next non-hole file region greater than or equal to the supplied offset. So in the generic case the entire file is data and there is a virtual hole at the end. That means we will just return i_size for SEEK_HOLE and will return the same offset for SEEK_DATA. This is how Solaris does it so we have to do it the same way.
