Subject: [PATCH] hugetlbfs: add llseek method
Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2008 19:46:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080908174634.GC19912@lst.de> (raw)

Hugetlbfs currently doesn't set a llseek method for regular files, which
means it will fall back to default_llseek.  This means no one can seek
beyond 2 Gigabytes.
