For a fallocate's zero range operation that targets a range with an end that is not aligned to the sector size, we can end up not updating the inode's i_size. This happens when the last page of the range maps to an unwritten (prealloc) extent and before that last page we have either a hole or a written extent. This is because in this scenario we relied on a call to btrfs_prealloc_file_range() to update the inode's i_size, however it can only update the i_size to the "down aligned" end of the range. Example: $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdc $ mount /dev/sdc /mnt $ xfs_io -f -c "pwrite -S 0xff 0 428K" /mnt/foobar $ xfs_io -c "falloc -k 428K 4K" /mnt/foobar $ xfs_io -c "fzero 0 430K" /mnt/foobar $ du --bytes /mnt/foobar 438272 /mnt/foobar The inode's i_size was left as 428Kb (438272 bytes) when it should have been updated to 430Kb (440320 bytes). Fix this by always updating the inode's i_size explicitly after zeroing the range.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
