Subject: [f2fs-dev] [PATCH] f2fs: do f2fs_zero_post_eof_page for all the time
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 05:06:15 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261028050615.259268-1-jaegeuk@kernel.org> (raw)

This fixes xfstests/generic/794, since the issue is not related to the
posix=strict mode only.

Cc: stable@kernel.org
Fixes: 5eced87b7d19 ("f2fs: fix to zero post-EOF data when extending file size")
Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
