Hi,
I sent following patches three weeks ago, but I got only a few
responses.
So, I am sending them again. Comments are always welcome.
We made patches to fix problems that occur when handling a large
filesystem and a large file. It was discussed on the mails titled
"stat64 for over 2TB file returned invalid st_blocks".
They consist of three patches.
[1/3] Fix the problem that st_blocks is invalid when calling stat64
for > 2TB-file.
[2/3] Add blkcnt_t as the type of inode.i_blocks.
This enables you to make the size of blkcnt_t either 4 bytes
or 8 bytes on 32 bits architecture with new configuration
parameter (CONFIG_LSF).
[3/3] Fix the problem that kstatfs's entries related to blocks are
invalid on statfs64 for a network filesystem which has more
than 2^32-1 blocks when CONFIG_LBD is disabled. This fix was
proposed by Trond Myklebust.
The content of the patch attached to this mail is below.
- inode.i_blocks
Change the type from unsigned long to sector_t.
- kstat.blocks
Change the type from unsigned long to unsigned long long.
- stat64.st_blocks
Change the type from unsigned long to unsigned long long on
architectures (i386, m68k, sh).
Any feedback and comments are welcome.
