Hi, I ran into an issue this week during the nf...@ietf.org's testing event. UFS - supports VOP_ALLOCATE() by using vop_stdallocate(). ZFS - just return EINVAL for VOP_ALLOCATE().
An NFSv4.2 server can either support Allocate or not, but it has to be for all exported file systems. This leads me to a couple of questions: - Is there a good reason for not using vop_stdallocate() for ZFS? - Should I try and support both file system types via vop_stdallocate() or not support Allocate at all? Btw, as a bit of an aside, "cc" uses posix_fallocate() and in weird ways, such as offset=0, len=1. Why, I have no idea? Thanks in advance for any comments, rick
