Subject: [char-misc-next] mei: don't update offset in write
Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2018 12:21:44 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180709092144.27952-1-tomas.winkler@intel.com> (raw)
From: Alexander Usyskin <alexander.usyskin@intel.com>
MEI enables writes of complete messages only
while read can be performed in parts, hence
write should not update the file offset to
not break interleaving partial reads with writes.
