Subject: [PATCH] omfs: reject unsupported nonzero size changes
Date: Wed,  4 Nov 2026 11:45:30 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104114530.30536-1-dennylin0707@gmail.com> (raw)

omfs_shrink_inode() only implements truncation to zero and returns -EIO
for a nonzero i_size. However, omfs_setattr() updates i_size and the page
cache before calling omfs_truncate(), which discards that error.

As a result, ftruncate() on an empty file to 16384 bytes succeeds, but
reading the extended file fails with EIO. Shrinking to a nonzero size
also leaves the old extents in place, so a later extension can expose
data that should have been discarded.

Reject size changes with a nonzero target before changing i_size or the
page cache. Keep truncation to zero and requests that leave the size
unchanged working.
