| |
Hi
Maximum file size on Linux is 2^41-2049. What happens when you create file so large and overflow i_blocks variable? (because that file will use more than 2^32 blocks, there are indirect blocks too) There seems to be no check for that in inode_add_bytes.
This bug applies to both 2.4 and 2.6.
Does anybody have so large raid to try it?
