block/file-posix: Truncate in xfs_write_zeroes()
XFS_IOC_ZERO_RANGE does not increase the file length: $ touch foo $ xfs_io -c 'zero 0 65536' foo $ stat -c "size=%s, blocks=%b" foo size=0, blocks=128 We do want writes beyond the EOF to automatically increase the file length, however. This is evidenced by the fact that iotest 061 is broken on XFS since qcow2's check implementation checks for blocks beyond the EOF. Reported-by:Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:
